Default ACDF flare up?

Hi all,
Any of my friends on here have experience with acdf flare ups?

Im 4 mos post op from acdf c6-7. Things have been going great until the other day (friday 3/10). It got really windy and i was trying to pull the truck door shut. The wind kept pulling the door back open and my arm would pull open with the door. Within an hour i had neck, shoulder, arm pain along with the last to fingers going numb. Same symptoms I had before surgery.

A day later Im feeling different pains. neck, Deltoid, top of forearm feels like numbness/pain. it shifts and moves around. So Im feeling scared Ive pinched another nerve! like c5-6.

When I drive or if I'm a passenger it really seems to get things really aggravated.

-I do have an appointment with my surgeon this Thursday.

1. Anyone have experience with post surgery flare ups?
2. Can anyone tell me there symptoms for c5-6 nerve pain?

Thanks for your help

I just joined this forum looking for answers to ACDF Laminosplasty etc of the Cervical Spine. I notice that about 800 folks looked at your posting BUT NOBODY replied. I would like to know how you are doing now. I have posted a few topics with noone commenting as well am starting to feel this forum may not be the best source???Thanks
