Hi there! New here. I just had ACDF surgery C5-6 and 6-7 on November 13. They took bone from my hip. Doing pretty well. Still have pain and like a burning sensation behind my shoulders. My left leg is a little weak. ( Left hip was where they took the graft from). I feel like I have Icy HOt on my shoulders. Throat still feels swollen. It's hard to swallow solid food still. I also noticed I seemed to have developed sleep Apnea. Never had this before the surgery. I though the pain in the shoulders would go away with the surgery. Does it take more time? I know I am barely a week post op. Just frustrated.
They have me in a Miami J collar. I was told no lifting or bending for 6 weeks.
Has anyone else felt the way I do? Curious on how long the recovery process works.
Thanks for your help!
