We agree. We thoroughly understand the pain and symptoms patients feel after spinal fusion surgeries, and this is why we do not advocate for or perform fusions or surgeries with hardware or devices of any kind. As you can see in the video, we treat guests who have already had fusions, but are still in pain on a routine basis. We have patented procedures to treat the adjacent levels that are worsening as a result of the fusion and procedures to remove unnecessary hardware causing harm within the body, among other procedures to eliminate the pain that was never taken care of by the fusion. If there are any more questions about our process, please feel free to call us at 855-267-0482 or visit www.bonati.com.

I was 26 years old (2017). It was in my back. I’m fused all the way up to the base of my neck. It’s honestly hell. Pretty depressed about this. I had minor scheurmanns so Dr Lenke probably shouldn’t have done the surgery to begin with.
I was the same after my thoracic fusion the pain just got worse it is constant misery 24/7 no life and I also chose to wean myself off my opioids. I go into get my 4 level thoracic fusion metalware removed tomorrow. I’m so so pleased that you have had success after the procedures. It gives me hope thank you.

My current Dr told me I needed a spinal fusion. His assistant told me after my MRI that it looked like they could go in and clean around it and take pressure off of my nerve and get some relief from my right leg but when I seen the actual Dr. all he wanted to talk about was a spinal fusion. I am not doing no spinal fusion. My uncle had one and it led to 2 other spinal fusions and he was in more pain after the 1st fusion. I just deal with it the best that I can right now.

Waiting for Follow up with my surgeon
@@johnmitchell8925 I went to another Dr and he told me not to do surgery and sent me to a OrthoSport & Spine PT and I told him that physical therapy does nothing and he said this is different and it was and I went for 4 months 3 times a week and it was the best thing I ever did. It got me out of pain.
I watched this video yesterday and literally broke down sobbing. I'm a 29 yo c6 quadriplegic and had a full spine fusion when I was 16. (sacrum to the C5 area) only to correct minor scoliosis. Since day one I've had constant pain 24/7 to this very day. I had no pain prior to the surgery. I remember telling the Dr it didn't feel right. And he stated that the surgery was successful. Unfortunately the outcome isn't and I honestly don't know how much pain I can take. My current pain Dr has increased my pain meds twice and it barely takes the edge off.

This brought me to tears. I am supposed to have this surgery soon and the doctor said that the only way to fix it is fusion. I don't know what to do, I don't want that stuff in me but the pain is so hard to live with. And I know I'm addicted to hydrocodone and now they want me on Oxycodone. I'm so glad he's better now.

@@ReasonablySpeaking9808 I told the doctor I didn’t want a fusion so he will be doing a laminectomy where they make more space for the nerves so it’s not squished. I will be having the surgery in July. I’m waiting by til July because of insurance reason.

Wow! Seeing that hardware is horrifying. I’ve had my 2nd spinal injection and still have pain off/on in my left leg and have pondered a little about surgery in the near future,after seeing that I don’t know.

Do Not do spinal injections!!! You can get fat tumors around your nerves, and bones where fat should not be. You can get osteoporosis with any corticosteroid. You can get scar tissue in your spine. You can get cystic lesions from the injections. You can get meningitis. Please please don’t do injections.
We've helped thousands of guests after injections and epidurals did not treat their pain. This is routine for us, as injections and epidurals do not actually treat/correct the underlying problem within the body, they simply mask it temporarily, if at all.

This video both breaks my heart and gives me hope. I am now 3 lumbar spine surgery down and the last one was spinal fusion, 18 months after the fusion I am still in agony, I've also been told that the bone has not taken completely and may have to have another surgery, I am at my wit's end, basically life less and drugged, its a sad existence! Thankyou for sharing your experience, i wish you nothing but good health for the future.

@@imveryhungry112 After having 3 surgeries the thought of having another procedure makes my skin crawl, if I knew that it had a high success rate, I might consider it. Have you recently had spinal fusion and if so did they use rods and screws?
@@imveryhungry112 I'm sorry you're in pain, this is my opinion, if I had to choose again, then I'd never have had the surgery, I'm definitely worse now than before. Try and do as much research as possible ask questions even if you think they're silly, ask if there's an alternative procedure. I hope you feel some relief real soon, it can really get you down being in constant pain. Positive vibes being sent your way!
@@ssch6600 my mobility is very limited, my flexibility isn't what it used to be and I'm in constant pain. I've done physio therapy for 3 years and hydro therapy and there's been no improvements, I'm worse than I was before surgery.
I just had a 360 spinal fusion ‘minimally invasive’ two months ago and I still hurt like hell. I didn’t have a choice because I have spondylilothesis and my back was unstable. It hurts, it sucks and is depressing. It’s getting better though. Once a month when I get my cycle it’s 5 steps back but otherwise I’m still progressing.

I’m really worried about mine. I have the vertebrae slipping, 2 ruptured discs and stenosis all in the same area. I’m 39 with 5 kids. Ages from 5 to 18. 18 year old has autism and is high functioning but not to wear he would help in a big way and my 5 year old has autism and needs lots of help. My husband works full time and can’t get many days off. Not sure how things will work out. Just holding out as long as I can.
Can someone help me figure out why after my back fusion, I am having pain and numbness on my legs and feel like my legs are losing strength. Also, I notice that when I am seating my feet, color turns black, like there is no blood circulation . The area of my surgery doesn't hurt unless I spend a lot of time on my feet or walk for an hour. Horrible pain on my feet, legs, and knees. Now my left heep is hurting, too. My heart doctor told me I have built up on my arteries going down my legs, and I have a vein not working. My joints are giving up on me. My cervical disk is messed up, too, and I feel numbness on my arms.
Im from South Africa and I think I have a similar problem. My first fusion was 5 years ago and my second one the 27th of August 2024. She removed the old screws and did a TLIF. Only one section up. I'm not sure if she'd replaced the old screws or what she actually done, but all I know is that since yesterday I begin to have the most excruciating pain I ever felt. I cannot reach her on her cellphone and must work through her practice, but even though I phone the practice, I cannot speak to her in person. I wish I haven't go through with the second Op, because I could handle the pain after the first operation.
I’d like to know what the Institute did for you differently than the fusion? your explaining about how the fusion failed and and you went to the Bonati institute, but didn’t explain what they did that was differently to help you. Could you please explain that part

I’ve had five separate fusion surgery’s I’m fused from T 11 T12 L1,2,3,4,5, and S 1 and cervical C3,4,5,6,7, and T 1. And I feel great and I did have a nerve stimulator installed for leg pain. I admit I’ve been very fortunate and I did stop working full time the last day of 2019 at 59. But I do still work in a door shop part time
We are glad to hear you feel well after your procedures, but it sounds like you still suffer from pain in your leg for which you had a nerve stimulator installed.

It's called withdrawal ... Second never ever listen to a doctor who failed to help you in the first place... And never go to Pain Management until you have check with at least two other doctors who can help to achieve what the first surgeon failed to accomplish... So very sorry for your lack of proper treatment....
We have seen many patients who were suffering from withdrawal symptoms due to the medications that they were prescribed by pain management centers. Our physicians believe in fixing the condition that is causing the problem instead of masking the symptoms.
My husband has had over 10 spinal surgeries. He has had the rods and screws replaced after failure. We get no answers from the doctors why this black goo formed around the hardware. I am looking for answers everywhere. .

I had a spinal fusion because my surgeon at the Florida hospital told me I was done growing and that it was too late for a back brace. I had a rare condition called scheuermann's kyphosis. After my surgery I felt like a brand new person, and all of my pain was gone. I only had pain when I would stand for too long or sit for too long, but other than that everything was fine for the first few years. Now I am having horrible pain and before I stopped seeing my surgeon they told me a screw was coming loose in my back, and now the pain is unbearable. Unfortunately I am fused all the way down my spine, and the pain radiates all throughout my back. I am really looking into having my hardware removed, but I am afraid that I may still have pain and that my back may go back to the way it was before. Both of my surgeons told me that it would and that it was best to not have the hardware removed. If I could go back I would have gotten a second opinion because I know there are other options out there to help me. I was 14 when I had the surgery done, I am now 22 years old.

Crazy, I'm in the same position as you when you made this comment. I'm 22 rn and 14 when I had the surgery. I'm doing generally fine - but I need to keep walking and putting in effort to not end up in pain. Some positions, foods, activities end up causing pain. It's high maintenance. I put a lot of restrictions on myself.

I want to ask you something I am now 58 but I've been dealing with this for like 25 years spine curvature because I broke four vertebrae due to osteoporosis at a young age 26789 so I normally can try to stand up straight but I just cannot stand the way it looks it bothers me a lot I found a doctor that wants to fuse my whole thoracic spine pretty much to the T2 to Alto but I'm not doing it for the pain I'm doing it cuz I don't like the way it looks I want my spine straight as it to appear at least not a 70° thoracic curve that it is now at least like a 40 or 50 you know that's it I mean I can I can do anything I want now but I'm hoping that this will at least straighten it the pain is really not that I am desperately not I hope it don't get worse I hope I'm not worse off in many ways that's the problem I'm worried about

Dr told me I need a spinal fusion at L3/L4 and states disc degenerative disease, herniated disc, bone spurs, spinal stenosis and grade I spondylolisthesis. I have been praying and my pain is completely gone but I still have numbness when walking or standing and some discomfort after playing golf (also loss of power). I am quite flexible and I just started PT and will be seeing a nutritionist to shed weight. What options do I have as I do not want a fusion as I want to be normal
Yes, we here at the Bonati Spine Institute do not recommend spinal fusions.

@@doesntmatter7576 I’m so sorry you had to go through this nightmare, I’m being told to get a fusion from the base of my skull to the lower back and I’m worried the pain will be worse then now and what could go wrong after hearing one nightmare story after another. Why couldn’t they get it all out for you? You should really consider suing your doctor who fused you and failed the surgery. Sounds like they botched it. I heard some people don’t have problems until a screw comes loose after many years but these days there are so many unskilled uncaring surgeons that don’t take the time to do things properly and the apparently lots of DEI hires for doctors that would never pass the standards to practice these advanced surgeries before, it’s no wonder there are so many surgeries gone wrong. I feel like if I get a fusion it will make my condition even worse as the doctors I’ve been to can’t even take the time to explain how they are possibly going to make my head even on my spine again as my whole face has become disfigured on one side from the dislocation in my neck.
Just for accuracy's sake, oxycodone is is one and a half times stronger than morphine. And there's no reason why someone would be sick on morphine if they weren't sick on oxycodone. I'm not doubting that he did get sick on it, but that's just unusual. That inaccurate comment about morphine makes me wonder about the accuracy of the rest of it. Still, so sorry that he had the pain.
If Tiger woods lumbar fusion had not produced enough bone or fused would he have been able to continue to play golf? Curious what the symptoms are of not fusing?
Hell on earth, I had my neck fused15 years ago, it did not fuse for a year. Problem is nothing ever changed with the pain, cant even watch tv for more than 20 minutes or even sleep where the head is stationary, and cant hold it up all day. 2-3 hours sleep with ambien for 15 years. Crippled for life 54 when they did it, now I'm 70 barely hanging on.

I had the revision from the front, had some stomach issues or pain from cutting and moving stuff out of the way, no one mentioned that might happen which sort of sux. My back felt much better a couple of months after surgery, but now starting to feel a little worse or more like it did before surgery so wondering if I am not fusing or if the lower disc that was not addressed has been causing my issues like I thought for years. Time will tell I guess but I am going to be pissed if I end up having L5/S1 fixed or fused down the road and I feel 100% then I will know I should have just fused it when the revision was done.

Thanks for posting this I hate how doctors lie about this surgery to vulnerable people.
We agree. We thoroughly understand the pain and symptoms patients feel after spinal fusion surgeries, and this is why we do not advocate for or perform fusions or surgeries with hardware or devices of any kind. As you can see in the video, we treat guests who have already had fusions, but are still in pain on a routine basis. We have patented procedures to treat the adjacent levels that are worsening as a result of the fusion and procedures to remove unnecessary hardware causing harm within the body, among other procedures to eliminate the pain that was never taken care of by the fusion. If there are any more questions about our process, please feel free to call us at 855-267-0482 or visit www.bonati.com.
Would you reccomend the removal of the hardware
@@BonatiSpine I'd like to know how do you fill the holes left from the screws?
Will you plz discribe whole procedure how you remove hardware and what will be the alternate solution you do to fix the issue
When I woke up in recovery from spinal fusion the first 3 words when I opened my eyes was “Oh My God” I knew immediately I had worked my last day

Oh wow! I’m scheduled to get one in May 2023
Same. I had just graduated Cornell Business School when I got my fusion for a minor kyphosis. I haven’t left my bed in six years or worked since.
I was 26 years old (2017). It was in my back. I’m fused all the way up to the base of my neck. It’s honestly hell. Pretty depressed about this. I had minor scheurmanns so Dr Lenke probably shouldn’t have done the surgery to begin with.
I wasn’t in pain. They did the surgery because there was a curve. Cosmetic I guess.
I was the same after my thoracic fusion the pain just got worse it is constant misery 24/7 no life and I also chose to wean myself off my opioids. I go into get my 4 level thoracic fusion metalware removed tomorrow. I’m so so pleased that you have had success after the procedures. It gives me hope thank you.

My current Dr told me I needed a spinal fusion. His assistant told me after my MRI that it looked like they could go in and clean around it and take pressure off of my nerve and get some relief from my right leg but when I seen the actual Dr. all he wanted to talk about was a spinal fusion. I am not doing no spinal fusion. My uncle had one and it led to 2 other spinal fusions and he was in more pain after the 1st fusion. I just deal with it the best that I can right now.

I have had four surgeries in the neck c3-c7 acdf. PLF c5c6c7. I’m still not right I hurt all the time I was told permanent nerve damage c56c7 right and c5c6 Left. I’m on gab robaxin and oxy all 4x day high dose My neck has been red since sometime after the 2020 surgery not sure if it’s from the rods. Just had a ct myelogram which not sure what it all means. Waiting for Follow up with my surgeon
@@johnmitchell8925 I went to another Dr and he told me not to do surgery and sent me to a OrthoSport & Spine PT and I told him that physical therapy does nothing and he said this is different and it was and I went for 4 months 3 times a week and it was the best thing I ever did. It got me out of pain.
I watched this video yesterday and literally broke down sobbing. I'm a 29 yo c6 quadriplegic and had a full spine fusion when I was 16. (sacrum to the C5 area) only to correct minor scoliosis. Since day one I've had constant pain 24/7 to this very day. I had no pain prior to the surgery. I remember telling the Dr it didn't feel right. And he stated that the surgery was successful. Unfortunately the outcome isn't and I honestly don't know how much pain I can take. My current pain Dr has increased my pain meds twice and it barely takes the edge off.

This brought me to tears. I am supposed to have this surgery soon and the doctor said that the only way to fix it is fusion. I don't know what to do, I don't want that stuff in me but the pain is so hard to live with. And I know I'm addicted to hydrocodone and now they want me on Oxycodone. I'm so glad he's better now.

@@imveryhungry112
After having 3 surgeries the thought of having another procedure makes my skin crawl, if I knew that it had a high success rate, I might consider it.
Have you recently had spinal fusion and if so did they use rods and screws?
@@imveryhungry112
I'm sorry you're in pain, this is my opinion, if I had to choose again, then I'd never have had the surgery, I'm definitely worse now than before.
Try and do as much research as possible ask questions even if you think they're silly, ask if there's an alternative procedure.
I hope you feel some relief real soon, it can really get you down being in constant pain.
Positive vibes being sent your way!
How would you say your movement is are you still flexible despite of lumbar fusion?
@@ssch6600 my mobility is very limited, my flexibility isn't what it used to be and I'm in constant pain.
I've done physio therapy for 3 years and hydro therapy and there's been no improvements, I'm worse than I was before surgery.
I just had a 360 spinal fusion ‘minimally invasive’ two months ago and I still hurt like hell. I didn’t have a choice because I have spondylilothesis and my back was unstable. It hurts, it sucks and is depressing. It’s getting better though. Once a month when I get my cycle it’s 5 steps back but otherwise I’m still progressing.

Can someone help me figure out why after my back fusion, I am having pain and numbness on my legs and feel like my legs are losing strength. Also, I notice that when I am seating my feet, color turns black, like there is no blood circulation .
The area of my surgery doesn't hurt unless I spend a lot of time on my feet or walk for an hour. Horrible pain on my feet, legs, and knees. Now my left heep is hurting, too. My heart doctor told me I have built up on my arteries going down my legs, and I have a vein not working.
My joints are giving up on me. My cervical disk is messed up, too, and I feel numbness on my arms.
Im from South Africa and I think I have a similar problem. My first fusion was 5 years ago and my second one the 27th of August 2024. She removed the old screws and did a TLIF. Only one section up. I'm not sure if she'd replaced the old screws or what she actually done, but all I know is that since yesterday I begin to have the most excruciating pain I ever felt. I cannot reach her on her cellphone and must work through her practice, but even though I phone the practice, I cannot speak to her in person. I wish I haven't go through with the second Op, because I could handle the pain after the first operation.
I’d like to know what the Institute did for you differently than the fusion? your explaining about how the fusion failed and and you went to the Bonati institute, but didn’t explain what they did that was differently to help you. Could you please explain that part

And never go to Pain Management until you have check with at least two other doctors who can help to achieve what the first surgeon failed to accomplish... So very sorry for your lack of proper treatment....
We have seen many patients who were suffering from withdrawal symptoms due to the medications that they were prescribed by pain management centers. Our physicians believe in fixing the condition that is causing the problem instead of masking the symptoms.
My husband has had over 10 spinal surgeries. He has had the rods and screws replaced after failure. We get no answers from the doctors why this black goo formed around the hardware. I am looking for answers everywhere. .

I had a spinal fusion because my surgeon at the Florida hospital told me I was done growing and that it was too late for a back brace. I had a rare condition called scheuermann's kyphosis. After my surgery I felt like a brand new person, and all of my pain was gone. I only had pain when I would stand for too long or sit for too long, but other than that everything was fine for the first few years. Now I am having horrible pain and before I stopped seeing my surgeon they told me a screw was coming loose in my back, and now the pain is unbearable. Unfortunately I am fused all the way down my spine, and the pain radiates all throughout my back. I am really looking into having my hardware removed, but I am afraid that I may still have pain and that my back may go back to the way it was before. Both of my surgeons told me that it would and that it was best to not have the hardware removed. If I could go back I would have gotten a second opinion because I know there are other options out there to help me. I was 14 when I had the surgery done, I am now 22 years old.

Crazy, I'm in the same position as you when you made this comment. I'm 22 rn and 14 when I had the surgery. I'm doing generally fine - but I need to keep walking and putting in effort to not end up in pain. Some positions, foods, activities end up causing pain. It's high maintenance. I put a lot of restrictions on myself.
Hello Everyone
My wife also suffering the same way. Doctors have put predicted screws and rods in her back. Now she is in terrible pain. Is it possible to remove the fusion hardware? Can anyone help us ?
Yes, we thoroughly understand the pain and symptoms patients feel after spinal fusion surgeries, and this is why we do not advocate for or perform fusions or surgeries with hardware or devices of any kind. As you can see in the video, we treat guests who have already had fusions, but are still in pain on a routine basis. We have patented procedures to treat the adjacent levels that are worsening as a result of the fusion and procedures to remove unnecessary hardware causing harm within the body, among other procedures to eliminate the pain that was never taken care of by the fusion. If there are any more questions about our process, please feel free to call us at 855-267-0482 or visit www.bonati.com.

Dr told me I need a spinal fusion at L3/L4 and states disc degenerative disease, herniated disc, bone spurs, spinal stenosis and grade I spondylolisthesis. I have been praying and my pain is completely gone but I still have numbness when walking or standing and some discomfort after playing golf (also loss of power). I am quite flexible and I just started PT and will be seeing a nutritionist to shed weight. What options do I have as I do not want a fusion as I want to be normal
Yes, we here at the Bonati Spine Institute do not recommend spinal fusions. Time and time again, patients who had a fusion experience pain for years after their surgery, and up to 70% may not be able to go back to doing normal activities. We would recommend that with your stated conditions that you give us a call to see if you are a candidate for the Patented Bonati Spine Procedures.

How did you go with the surgery? Did you have any discs in your c spine fused previously that were removed?
The surgery to remove hardware failed also. They could only get one screw out.
@@doesntmatter7576 I’m so sorry you had to go through this nightmare, I’m being told to get a fusion from the base of my skull to the lower back and I’m worried the pain will be worse then now and what could go wrong after hearing one nightmare story after another. Why couldn’t they get it all out for you? You should really consider suing your doctor who fused you and failed the surgery. Sounds like they botched it. I heard some people don’t have problems until a screw comes loose after many years but these days there are so many unskilled uncaring surgeons that don’t take the time to do things properly and the apparently lots of DEI hires for doctors that would never pass the standards to practice these advanced surgeries before, it’s no wonder there are so many surgeries gone wrong. I feel like if I get a fusion it will make my condition even worse as the doctors I’ve been to can’t even take the time to explain how they are possibly going to make my head even on my spine again as my whole face has become disfigured on one side from the dislocation in my neck.
Just for accuracy's sake, oxycodone is is one and a half times stronger than morphine. And there's no reason why someone would be sick on morphine if they weren't sick on oxycodone. I'm not doubting that he did get sick on it, but that's just unusual. That inaccurate comment about morphine makes me wonder about the accuracy of the rest of it. Still, so sorry that he had the pain.
Ok Dr Phil 😂sorry you got offended by his experience must be hard for you. 😂
@@neitherhereorthere7131 I wasn't offended. I was just correcting misinformation and making an observation.
If Tiger woods lumbar fusion had not produced enough bone or fused would he have been able to continue to play golf? Curious what the symptoms are of not fusing?
Hell on earth, I had my neck fused15 years ago, it did not fuse for a year. Problem is nothing ever changed with the pain, cant even watch tv for more than 20 minutes or even sleep where the head is stationary, and cant hold it up all day. 2-3 hours sleep with ambien for 15 years. Crippled for life 54 when they did it, now I'm 70 barely hanging on.

I am having a revision in April of 2023, from the front instead of the back to hopefully fix the issue. I guess we will see.

I had the revision from the front, had some stomach issues or pain from cutting and moving stuff out of the way, no one mentioned that might happen which sort of sux. My back felt much better a couple of months after surgery, but now starting to feel a little worse or more like it did before surgery so wondering if I am not fusing or if the lower disc that was not addressed has been causing my issues like I thought for years. Time will tell I guess but I am going to be pissed if I end up having L5/S1 fixed or fused down the road and I feel 100% then I will know I should have just fused it when the revision was done.
Backyard deck hardware? Isn’t that misleading?
You had a really bad doctor that was poorly educated it sounds like to me.
What area of your back I have my S1-L5 and I have the same screws and my left side hurts so much especially when I sit for a long time
