Have you explored our other forums for these topics?
Perhaps the Spinal, SCS , depression, medications forums?
here's our main page with all forums listed-

Do the drs think the arm & hand symptoms are due to the neck issues/surgery. or ongoing and to be expected?
Has any PT been tried to see if it can help at all?
