Sorry to hear you need to have that done, ugh. Hope it offers you relief!I'm on a waiting list to have my L5, S1 fused.

tim hendricks had 3 discs replaced and seems to still surf.

I made sure to let him know how important surfing it is to me.
It's possible/higher chance for those disk to also degenerate, yes.doesn't fusion increase chance of discs above to also herniate?
Has it influenced your surfing, and if so, how?L4/L5/S1 fused some time ago.
Still surfing.
Say hello to my LB friends!
I forgot about that, but think it was actually a genetic thing from a quick google?Yikes. Best of luck to you, Waxy! FWIW, Taylor Knox also has a fusion from a childhood accident.
