Guest guest Posted March 19, 2006 Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 Hello all. I'm a 31 year old male who has suffered with degeneration for 15 years. Had right knee arthoscopy in 1993. Was diagnosed with congenital spinal stenosis (L3-L4) back in 1997. In September 2005, I concussed while moving furniture. Weird story, tell ya bout it later. They found that I have degeneration in the C5-C6 region and a 10mm Chiari malformation. Talk about hitting the jackpot! Well, I'm slated for cervical decompression and fusion for the C5-C6 region March 30th. I've been placed on medical leave because of the intermittent numbness and shooting pain I have in my neck and left arm. I am looking forward to getting this done because I have a 9- month old son who should have his father in better mobility. Thanks for having this support group. I'm sure I'll be leaning on you all during this life challenge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
