9 week post op update
Hi all,
Has been a while since I have visited the boards to see how my fellow spineys are doing.
In any event I am 9 weeks post op now from 2 level cervical ADR. I am fully recovered, out of my cervical collar, running, and weightlifting again. I take no pain pills of any kind, prescription or over the counter.
It is like my problem never happened. I am very thankful for ADR and wish all of you the best in your own personal battles with pain. My only regret is not getting the surgery sooner.
Matt
