I am scheduled for a cervical fusion for a non-union at C6-7, with an iliac crest graft, this is all related to a work related injury in 2009 and it just keeps getting more and more involved.
Good luck and I hope these injections give thou some additional relief.

Hi NMC,

Did Dr. Donahue perform the TOS surgery (first rib resection and scalenectomy)? How are you doing as a result of the surgery? I'm a patient of Dr. Donahue and he recommends surgery for bilateral NTOS, but I haven't yet decided on what to do.
