Hi ! Happy to meet all of you ! I am staring down the barrel of a 2 or 3 level ACD&F . I have a mess in my neck starting at C3-C7 . I have spondolysthesis (bone spurs) at all the levels disc bulging . C4-C7 have canal stenosis and cord flattening at C4-C7 with varing degrees of severity. Most of my "bad disease" is at the C5-C6 level and C4-C6 is really just a jumble of disc bulging canal stenosis foraminal narrowing and cord flattening. I have had numerous Epidural injections and had little relief from those. I am having varying degrees of radiculopathy in both arms, weakness, numbness and "dropsy's" in both hands. I have noticed as of late I have the feeling I can't swallow well and choke sometimes when eating. (HAVE NO IDEA if that is related). I am interested to know how everyone has done following the ACD&F at these levels and to hear opinions. I have been distressed to find out that I will basically be trading one pain for another pain, but really just stabilizing the affected levels. I hear the pain is sometimes no better just different. Also what is the opinion of Neurosurgeon Vs. Ortho Spince Specialists ? Thanks again and Nice to "see" you !
