I am still pleased that I had the ACDF and hope that you are also even with these issues. As you know I had a rough time with recovery also and was rear ended in Sept. I was recently diagnosed with RSD and bulges and a tear in the lmber region and the EMG in the neck showed a problem with the nerve from C^ which I can't figure out since I'm fused. There may be extra growth hitting the nerve. Oh joy the saga continues .
Yes, it does seem like we are on a merry go round sometimes, doesn't it? There is always some issue to deal with. I'm glad I had the ACDF also, my neck is finally starting to feel better, and with the pain patch I'm on the pain is controlled.

My arm surgery is April 4th, so just a few weeks away. I hope recovery is fast and easy! I will have lots of questions for the consult about being put under.

Sorry you are having issues with you spine again, not fun. We've been on this ride long enough I think.

Take care,
Cathie
