you said "

The cartilage between the 2 lower most disk is gone.  
"

What you normally have between vertebrae spaces are things called Discs, which are like little zip locked strage bags of a fluid that acts like a cushion between your vertebrae of your spine.

SO, if that DISC is no longer providing a buffer betweeen youy vertebrae this is called a herniated disc because the disk ahas ruptured and the fluid has all leaked out...

Today, they now have an artifical buffer in there in between, a liner of you would.
Something else that which has been long a long time is vertebrae disc fusion where the doc takes a few vertebrae that are rubbing and put a steel rod through all of them and fuse them together so they quit rubbubg and become essentially ONE Bone. This is what Tiger Woods had done. My father had 5 disks pinned and fused in the middle of his back.

I like the option of replacing the herneated and ruptured disk with artifical material that acts like cartilege in your knees.

I hope you can get the help with the insurance.

You seriously need a very good orthopedic spine doctor.

Been there, done that, and am a patient of one.

micro just returned from the NORTH country....
