Hi, my name is joolzy! Anyone have experience of having a second surgery for Spinal Stenosis?

I had surgery for spinal stenosis about 8 years ago and the results were fantastic….pain free! Unfortunately the pain returned in both legs nearly a year ago. I had steroid injections a few weeks ago which sorted both legs for a few days, but then my right leg became painful again. I am due for a spinal fusion in 3 months time. I am scared about this as going in through an existing surgery site carries more risk….I'd love some advice from all you peeps out there…..

Hi @joolzy, welcome to the community. I'm really sorry to hear you're in pain again. As Bluebell21 mentioned, there are definitely some other members around who are living with Spinal Stenosis. I've added it to the title of your post so hopefully they can find you and offer any advice they might have.

Hope you'll enjoy your time on the community ☺️
