Hi Guys!
It is day 4 post-op, and am doing fairly well. My neuro used "cages" between vertebrae instead of bone, and a plate. He told me since he used so much metal, I do not need to wear any collar at all. Swallowing is still difficult, but throat isn't sore. Bad spasms and pain between shoulder blades, decreasing daily. Sleeping well, but waking up quite swollen under chin, and around neck. The incision looks good, no redness or seeping, and no fever or any other signs of infection. Thanks for your support, Dave
