Cervical spine surgery

[Maron]

I also just want to say that I made this post more than anything to share my relief and excitement about finally having the operation.

I am looking forward to the procedure and the one year rehab which will follow. I am confident that the operation will significantly relieve my pain, if not entirely. I am not expecting perfection but I am keep hope that it is near possible. And I am willing to put in the workday in and day out to get back in tip top shape.

That was one of the hardest things this past few years, doing stretches and exercises for minimum a hour per day which never fixed anything but only helped to minimize flair ups and pain. Finally after the operation the work that I put in will actually keep making me better each day.

My Physiotherapy told me running and lifting weights will take six months to a year. I can’t wait to be active again.

Best of luck to you...my Mom is 93 and has lived with degenerative disk disease for many years...it is truly a struggle...

That's the most important thing! I can't claim to know to any real extent the kind of pain you've been living with, but I do have frozen shoulders and that's quite enough for me. I really do hope the operation is as smooth as can be for you, even if the doctors/surgeons aren't competing for you in a capitalist feeding frenzy.

It will also be great if this removes the hurdles between you and your chosen profession! Even with the explanation, I still think it's a bit BS that they can do that.

Congrats on finally being approved for the surgery. I hope you the best and fast recovery.

It sounds like you’re very determined and your perseverance will really payoff during the rehab to follow.

I'm sorry to hear about your moms experience. My grandmother suffered from terrible hip pain the last year or two before she died and was consistently intoxicated on narcotics, that is no way to live.

I wish you all the best. I hope sincerely that you can reduce your pain.

Glad to know of this exciting transition, bud.

Rehab may be challenging at times, so stay focused on the positive result (which we know you will.)

All the best.

I wish you a speedy recovery. My father suffered for years from terrible back pain. Doc fused 4 vertebra. Took a year of rehab but he has had 20 good pain free years now.
