I can follow with my local Orthopedic doctor, but will need to travel back at 6 weeks and again in 3 months. It's going to be costly, but this is the only option. I just hope all goes well and there are no complications.

Still a mystery as to how this happened. He said he has never seen before with the type neck surgery I had.

He recently performed on another patient and is going to check to see if they would be willing to talk with me.

I will keep you posted - sounds like MagicMom might be joining our club.
