I injured my back and was referred to an orthopedic dr by my primary care provider.He performed a discectomy, but i had no relief from pain so he ordered another mri which showed that the disc had reruptured.He said that i needed a spinal fusion to fix my problem, so i agreed to let him do it.I was not informed that he would be putting medtronic bmp in my body and the nightmare of pain that i would have to endure.He performed a posterior lumbar fusion which was not approved by fda for that surgery.I have developed epitopic bone spurs throughout my spine encroaching nerve roots.I have been told there is nothing else that can be done for me because a neurosurgeon removed one of the ectopic bones and within a month it had grown back.I live with terrible pain and have no quality of life.I believe someone should be held responsible for the pain i have to endure every day.
