Sorry to hear all that Mike, I've been through both. We lost count on the amount of kidney stones I've had. I've had 3 back surgeries and am fused with a cage at L4,L5 and S1, S2. In other words I have 4 screws in my back that look like a shape of a cage and the fusing took place in and around them. Much better than the old match stick fusing and less recovery time. The new fusing looks like a breeze, hope they do that one for you.
