I am 2 months post op. I had sagittal imbalance correction by insertion of a hyperlordotic cage at L5/S1 level followed by posterior fixation to the pelvis 3 days later.
I had a bit of a setback last week and was back in hospital for 3 days. After scans and xrays showing my metalwork was still in the correct position the doctors think my piriformis muscle had gone into spasm and trapping my sciatic nerve.
I have had 4 more flare ups since but not as acute as the first one. I'm hoping this is temporary......anyone else experienced this?
