What kind of fusion are we talking about? Anterior (ACDF), or posterior? Bone graft, or just plates and screws? Any residual pain?
I'm guessing that if the boney fusion hasn't completely healed after nine months, it ain't ever gonna!
Plates and screws. Went in through my throat, so, Anterior? He also did a discectomy, as my disc was badly damaged. I’m 53, so maybe age has something to do with it? He said it was healing on my last visit in September.
Thanks, Tom
