Guest guest Posted July 3, 2006 Report Share Posted July 3, 2006 I'm still trying to figure it all out, but my biggest question / fear is - is detethering worth it ? I took Dr B's words to be that he could dethether me and end my low back pain and all my waist down symptoms. By reading these posts I'm not so sure.( Don't get me wrong guys, I LOVE this sites honesty and forthcoming, wouldn't be here if it wasn't that way, please don't ever change, lol ) I understand scar tissure growing back and the need for more detethering down the road, but is it just me or does it seem that its a bit more complicated then just scar tissue regrowth. Is it also that MRI's only show so much and once a surgeon gets in there they find more wrong so more work is done possibly causing more recovery, ect ? Still having a hard time getting what I want out of my head onto the screen so hopefully my questions clear. Do you think detethering has been worth doing ? Should someone wait as long as possible before doing it ? Or go as soon as possible ? Looking for opinions from those who have been there before me. Thanks everyone :-).
