Jeanette Shares If She Regrets Waiting to Have Minimally Invasive Spinal Surgery (VIDEO)

Jeanette explains if she regrets not having minimally invasive spinal surgery sooner.

Jeanette:
I would do anything to go back because I believe if I had been with Dr. Kim and minimally invasive surgery from the beginning I would have had one surgery and I would have been well, and I wouldn’t have lost two full years of my life in and out of surgery, in and out of epidural procedures. With my two failed back surgeries, in addition to that I probably had about 15 or 20 other procedures also, nerve ablations and epidural shorts.

The medications were off the charts. I was on Fentanyl patches and morphine and every painkiller you could ever try and they just didn’t even touch nerve pain. So, to go back in time I would definitely choose to go with the minimally invasive. I think it would have saved me a lot earlier.
