Lumbar spine disc collapse
This mri is 1.5 yrs post md … still not living a normal life. The 3rd slide is pre MD. Getting MRI with contrast in a couple days and meeting with surgeon. No idea what they will suggest hoping not fusion any ideas ?

I had a l4 l5 left side Microdiscectamy in Feb 2025. It helped immensely but never fully recovered, continued having spasms which worsened to the point it’s basically as bad as it was. Had to take steroids every couple months. This is my most recent mri but I’m getting one with contrast Tuesday to see what the plan is. I’m in constant pain. The other mri in last slide is before my surgery. MRI report this time says it’s worse since the one post surgery (not pictured.) so yeah this sucks. I don’t know what the course of action will be.
