I went through numerous doctors for 3 months towards the end of 2012. Slept on the couch, propped up. Immense pain. Come to find out I had a few bulgings discs in my neck, bone spurs, etc. This was all just wear and tear over time, no specific event. I am now 37 as of a few days ago.
I had Cervical Fusion surgery 1/3/13. After 3 months in a brace, I was released. Took it easy for a few weeks, then started back in the gym, very light. I'm happy to report now that I exercise regularly with no restriction including weight work. I can play with my young boys again. I can go to events without being in terrible pain.
I do still get occassional sensations down my arm, and my neck isn't 100% mobile, but I am largely pain free and doing MUCH better. I hope you experience the same in your surgery. I had a 2 level done. C5-C6, C6-C7.
