Hi every. Quick synopsis. In the last 13 years; 2 brain surgeries for aneurysms, 5 strokes, 5 seizures and the assorted TIA here and there.

My spine is a mess from years of pounding from being an elite athlete. I' slowly losing the ability to walk. I can't stand for more than 30 seconds and I fall a lot.

No myelopathy so it's most likely nerve damage. I've already had Lumbar surgery. Here's the thing, Everything I read on ACDF talks about pain. I don't hurt for Pete's sake, I'm just hemiplegic. Do cervical issues always have to hurt?

Thanks
