Default Another ACDF will make 4 levels. Thoughts???
Hey guys. I have had multiple surgeries on my neck (see signature). MRI last week showed the two levels between my C3/4 & C6/7 surgery were bulging C4/5 and Moderate central and right paracentral disc protrusion at C5/6. Because these two levels are inbetween two previous surgeries, what are the chances of it healing or would it be wise to just go ahead and fuse these two levels and be done with it? I have been in pain management for 3+ yrs, and I would like to get this cleared up, and get back to a somewhat normal life. Your thoughts are appreciated. Thanks
