Welcome, sorry you are here though...
Robin, what a terrible struggle you've endured; I hope we can provide some comfort and support. If I may ask you to clarify a few things for us:
- What degree of arthritis did you have...do you have...in your spine? How were your facet joints, before and after your surgeries? If you have copies of your imaging studies and reports, that should address these points in detail.
- Do the post-surgical imaging studies show that the placement of each device was correct? Has there been any movement (migration) of the artificial disc in your lumbar vertebrae? This is absolutely critical to know.
- Relating to the above point, did you have a DEXA scan, or any study to indication your spine/hip bone densities?
Sorry to hit you with these questions, but these are obviously very important! I'll save other comments and questions for later...
