Default Me too

If you do a search, you will find a couple of threads on it. I have had 4 neck fusions. While the pain is still there it is not near as bad as before the surgeries.

I am fighting 2 bulging discs, L3 - 4, now along with hip issues.

Be careful with it. I came very close to being a quadreplegic before I had my first fusion done at C5-6-7. Doc told wife that the disc was severly impinging my cord and 3 more mm would have probably severed my cord.

Use a neuro period. Get 2 opinions. A chiro definately helped relieve my pain for the first surgery.

PM or email if you want/need more info. Do research on the doctor you see. Ask your primary care physician who they would see if it was them or a family member.
