[|Human|] Hi I have chronic back pain and was told I need a titanium spacer in my back L4L5 Will this help as I am suffering from pain as we speak and it also effects my nerves and sexual functions I was the surgery is not covered by the B.C.medical health care cost is 15,000 what can I do please help. Please and thank you
[|AI|]  Hello, I have studied your case. As there is neurological weakness and sexual dysfunction you will need immediate decompression. MRI shows disc compressing on nerve root then surgical decompression is permanent solution. You can send your MRI films or report. So that I can help you better. If you can't afford disc spacer/replacement then you can just go for laminectomy and decompression. Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow-up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries. Take care.
