Default Post cervical fusion

Hello,

I am reaching out to someone who has undergone anterior/posterior cervical diskectomy and fusion. Preferably c4-c7. I had it done in Aug. 07.

I am experiencing some pretty severe problems and I'd like to know if anyone is going through the same thing.

Please write to let me know.

Thanks,
toothdrv

Default Re: reaching out too

I am sorry too that you have had to go through all of that.I have had C-6-7 and now they would like to do the rest like you have had done. I am afraid. I would like to know what your responces to that proceedure are. I am afraid to make the decision to go through with more. ginnie

Hi there,

I'm new here and have been reading members' posts for a while now, desperately trying to find someone in a similar position to me!!

I'm Phoebe, I had anterior/posterior fusion to C3/C4 last March following a serious car crash. It has been a very 'interesting' journey for me since he accident and I'm currently experiencing a low mood and chronic pain.

My main difficulties are getting comfortable and dealing with the nasty side effects of my medication. Unfortunately, I need to stick religiously to my drug use as if I'm late in taking my medication, my neck and shoulder pain returns in a vengeance

So, I can completely understand where you're coming from.....it's not a position to be in but I'm always hoping that things will get better...however, on the flip side, I'm constantly worrying that I may require similar surgery at a later date as I'm only in my early 40's.

Big hugs to you and it's great to meet you :-)
