Today my neck is KILLING ME. Ok, it's hurt worse before, but...
2 1/2 years ago I woke up one morning with two herniated discs in my neck... After being prescribed physical therapy, which I "failed out" of, I spent several weeks on bedrest, steroids & dilauded. Finally I had "anterior cervical discectomy with fusion". My surgery was not completely successful. Two bone grafts were taken from my right hip and placed between C5&C6 and C6&C7. For some reason one of the bone grafts did not heal. In 17 years of doing this procedure, I am only the 3rd patient my surgeon has seen this happen to.
