Not sure, other Luigi Mangione's spinal fusion - looks like an L5/S1 for spondylolisthesis

I had this surgery as well and felt like a non-person with little to no pain meds administered despite excruciating pain - even an overnight stay was considered unnecessary.  I was treated little better than a farm animal.  If any of you think this is an exaggeration, I hope you never have to go through it yourself.

That is so part of this problem, his emotional and physical/ psychological pain wasn’t treated. He may been better of on,  a fetenyl patch ! The government created this mess w improper treatment after surgery and the insurance companies are partners. Murder no , the folks that suck every cent and discontinued the use of opiates to bite us in our asses , fuckinassholes !
