--recent MRI's say about current position/osteophytic complexes at or above/below the fusion?
A fusion at a given level does have the tendency to make levels above/below unstable--many find some years later they're back for additional surgery. |

C7 became a problem and osteophyte was removed as well as decompression for old nerve damage. All good now. Take scans to surgeon so he can review them. |
