Minimally Invasive Sacroiliac Joint Surgery

What helped this grandmother get back to gardening?

I had been years suffering from low-back pain.

It was absolutely depressing because if you hurt all the time, it’s a cycle. You hurt; you sit; you don’t do things; you don’t get out. I was limited in my ability to stand for periods. I was limited in my ability to walk. I was limited in my ability to lift. It was difficult to do my job. It was difficult to play with my grandchildren. Stair climbing was almost impossible.

It’s made my life absolutely better.

I met with my doctor following my injection, which showed that the source of my pain was the SI joint, he explained the procedure, which would be an implanting of these implants in my SI joint. The procedure went very well. I was up and out of bed that same day, into physical therapy. I have no awareness of having the implants in my back at all. I gardened all summer, and it was no problem for me.
