I was told i had 2 failed fusions (1 lumbar sacral and one of the sacroiliac joint) because my body developed antigen from the bmp7 that was used.Ct scan and mri's show i have a vacuum in my lumbar sacral facet joints as well as my sacroiliac joints.Surgeries were on (b)(6) 2007 (anterior l-2) and 05/09/2013 (bilateral si joints).I had a failed fusion in 1995, lumbar - sacral.I do not know if bmp was used.I was told the surgeon put in "a glue" type of product.I failed that fusion also.Three failed fusions.I have 12 screws holding my lumbar sacral and sacroiliac joints together.
