OK well after seeing doctors for a few months, I need spinal fusion of the L5-S1 and a flexrod on L5-L3 to help with tension from the fused joint. Right now there is about 1-2mm between my L5-S1 when there should be almost an inch. I causes my left leg to go numb as soon as I stand up. After talking to the doctor, his assistant, and a few people that either had or have siblings that had surgery I've decided to go ahead with the surgery because I cant wait anymore, I want to get back to work. I will be in the hospital for a week then in a brace for 3-12 months. But I will be able to drive a truck again.
