I am 10 days post-op ACDF with an artificial disc, cage, stem cells and 2 titanium screws
c5/c6. This is the first post I have found that mentions this type of "hardware". My recovery has been easier than I expected, particularly in terms of range of motion. Post op. appointment isn't for another month. Pain was in my right arm pre-op, now in my left arm, but sporadic. Throat issues are just about cleared up. Anxious to start PT but doc says not until I see him next month. The only odd thing is that I woke up last night with a severe headache Took about 2 hours to finally fall asleep. I was never able to find anything on the Internet about this new process so if anyone has any links I would very much appreciate it. Thank You
