Thanks to all who are posting to this thread. I'm 43 and went through posterior fusion the end of 2004 and then another procedure 3 months later to fix the problems from the first. I've been in pain management for about 2 years due to horrible lower back pain. I'm to the point that we keep increasing the morphine every other month and I'm struggling mentally. My ortho dr just recommended the Axialif procedure as well as cleaning up the issue of the cages and bone that is pressing into my nerves. I'm scheduled for the procedure in April. Please keep posting with your progress. It's been really helpful in making up my mind on going ahead with the procedure.
