In March 2010 I was diagnosed with herniations at C4/C5 & C5/C6. I had ACDF surgery in April 2010. All of my symptoms were on my right side. About 8 weeks after surgery I began having very similar pain on my left side. I went for another MRI and the doctor didn't see anything. He scheduled me for a cortizone shot for this Friday. Has anyone else had a similar problem? I can barely use my left arm. I cant reach at all with my left arm. It feels like a red hot nail going into my shoulder.
