Re: regaurding neck pain after cevical fusions

[Guest guest]

and before my ACDF I was told 25% chance I'd be worse,

25% change I'd be the same, 25% chance I'd be a little better and 25%

chance it would solve things

Hi Joy,

WOW...is that fairly common for the esophagus to fuse to

the plate? I hope not...that sounds nasty and painful. Did he say

why it happened?

Mylograms are NO fun. How did you make out with

yours?

I agree with your Mom....once the spine is injured...your

injury is for life. I really can't think of anyone I know that has

had back or neck problems that even after surgery were 100%. Even my

Neuro said before my ACDF surgery the best he could do was 80%. Please

let me know how you made out Joy.
