Hello and of course I wish you well in having your cervical spine evaluated. I have had multipal surgeries on my cervical spine, with all of those symptoms you mentioned. My last was Aug 30th ten weeks ago. I presented with all of what you said and it was a successful fussion C3-7 a big big surgery. I am fine 10 weeks later with more relief than I ever hoped possible. If you do have to have surgery, keep in touch with this list, they helped me through it all and gave me hope that things will turn out OK. This surgery hurt alot, it was a 10 at times while healing, but gosh It was worth it to get the relief from pain that I had. I was on morphine for 7 years after a failed fussion at C6-7. Get second and third opinion, and make sure you understand all the medical terminology. ASK QUESTIONS do not be afraid. Let me know if you need anything as I do have a good knowledge of proceedures. ginnie and by the way good luck to you
