Hello Jo*mar, I have been off work for 1 year now since my surgery, I work in sales and am on my feet(no sitting allowed) all day long, I do some computer work,but it's not like at a desk job, If you read my post again, I do not believe I have carpel tunnel, I had a 3 level ACDF from C4-C7 with titanium plate and screws with donor bone, I have pins and needle like feelings in my arms down to my hands since 2007 prior to and still after surgery along with headaches almost every day, my symptoms have never changed, as well have had carpel tunnel testing in 2006 and no signs of carpel tunnel, the newest MRI shows bone spurs and C3/4 disc herniation, I believe this is the reason for my neck issues, thank-you for your post
