I had a 2 level ACDF C5-6 C6-7 on 12/9/2010. So far I feel as if the surgery has been a success. I still get some burning shoulder to shoulder and the base of my neck get achy. Not sure if it is related to the surgery, but I have not had a sinus headache, pain or pressure since the surgery. Granted this is not my bad season, but I tended to suffer year round. I would use the NeilMed Sinus rinse on a regular basis, end up on antibiotics. I also had many migraines associated with sinus issues where I needed to take Maxalt to help the situation. My husband said that my snoring has also stopped. I am still sleeping propped up on pillows so we are curious if that will change when I decrease the angle that I am sleeping. I would love to hear other stories of people who may have had unusual positive outcomes after surgery.
