Has anyone had a spinal fusion - with good results? And how do you get a 2nd opinion?

Hello :)
I've spent ages reading the forums - didnt realise they existed until recently! I've been looking for experiences with Xolair, as I have my outpatient appointment at Papworth tomorrow and want to ask them if they will consider it for me. I have severe asthma, with allergies - which I may cope with

Can hypermobility syndrome affect endometriosis, adenomyosis or pelvic scarring?
I have hypermobility syndrome (extra flexible joints) and know I have scarring in my pelvis. I was also diagnosed with endo but then after my 2nd lap told it was "non-active". My gp now suspects adenomyosis and missed endo but I'm wondering if any of my gynea issues can be made worse by my HMS. Does

Knee Replacement
Hi, Well the deed is done, I had my left knee replacement last Thursday and was allowed home from hospital yesterday evening. Now the hard work starts to get my new knee going. I had an epidural and sedation and knew nothing of the operation so I am relieved and confidant now that when I get my other

A BRIEF HISTORY OF RA AND ITS TREATMENT
I thought it would be interesting to delve into the history of RA. It goes back pretty far; farther than I thought it would. Some skeletal remains in what is now Tennessee (USA) date back to 4500 BC and have shown some signs of Rheumatoid Arthritis. So far, that’s been the earliest appearance of this

Keep On Running!
I started my second week today! To be honest I can't believe I have stuck with it but I'm now really enjoying it. I had brain surgery last Dec and had been completely sedentary for six month, I also gave up smoking in Oct so my weight rocketed and I went up three dress sizes. I had always been active

You Can Get Help With Eyesite Problems
My Sister-in -Law Audrey was diagnosed with PSP in December 2011 But we are sure that she had been miss-diagnosed for at least 6 years when she was being treated for vertigo and other balance problems. During that period she had eye problems which opticians and the hospital eye department. were unable

Anyone else with Ehlers Danlos Syndrome (EDS) or hyper mobility syndrome? (To go with their Lupus that is!)
I'm finding writing about everything quite cathartic, especially now I've found somewhere with so many similar people! I was just wondering, does anyone else get insane joint involvement? My joints are ridiculous - you know those old fashioned dolls that had elastic holding their limbs into the sockets

I saw my consultant 2 weeks ago and asked about a finger joint replacement and was informed that it is usually done for people with osteoarthritis but because I have RA it would not be so straight forward as my RA was active and this is what was causing the problems using my hands and the awful pain

Anyone had a spinal fusion operation?
I have to have a spinal fusion op of the lumbar region. I'm looking for any info on how to cope when coming out of hospital - showering, laying in bed, how active are you. Anything would be appreciated.

Does anyone else also have Joint Hypermobility Syndrome?
Hi, I was diagnosed with Raynaud's about 4 years ago & with Hypermobility around 3 years ago. Having reviewed the Hypermobility web forum quite a lot of them also suffer from Raynaud's either as Primary or Secondary and even some Scleroderma. I was just wondering if there was a known corrolartion between
