Dogmama, for me it's 5, 6 & 7 that are affected. I'm not absolutely sure what the surgery will be, but I suspect it will be a fusion. Dr B mentioned deciding whether to use my bone or cadaver bone. My MRI was super clear, vertebra is definitely pressing on the spinal cord.

RR - yep, no waterfall jumps or re-creations of the car chase scene from Bullit. Doctors can be such buzz kills......
