Guest guest Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 I have no disc between L4 and L5. The pain clinic I am going to go to did a procedure on a friend of mine who had the same problem. They injected cement between the two vertebrae. He is doing fine, but now has trouble with the nerves running along the sides of the spine and is in a lot of pain. Has anyone ever had this done?

Hi Colleen I have never had it done, but here is information about the procedure: http://www.spine-health.com/treatment/back-surgery/vertebroplasty-vs-kyphoplasty I am so sorry your friend is having nerve pain. Hopefully, that will resolve asap. Kaylene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
