Hi all,

I am having my surgery this Friday. Three level ACDF of C5,6 and T1. I am 45 male in great physical condition. Not sure how I hurt myself, but apparently had this herniation for awhile. This is something that I am not looking forward to and may not drive myself to the hospital. Can anyone encourage me to get this done. I'm not in pain most of the time, only experiencing neck pain when playing sports and prolong sitting or walking. I have a lot of muscle spasm in chest and arms and finger numbness. I just want to get back to my normal life style of weight lifting, biking and hiking.

Phil
