Just to be clear... I'm not saying that this wake-up call indicates surgery. It warrants a look. Hopefully symptoms will subside and I'll continue saying that my cervical symptoms are "mostly annoying... once in a while limiting." If that is what I continue to describe, it will be difficult to do surgery.

Regarding ultimate surgical decision... that will be made based on the state of the information at the time. I don't know what's involved.... how many levels, etc... If I get to the point where I'm serious about surgery, I'll do what I help my clients to do... investigate options, make informed decisions.

Dale... I'll be trying to improve my sneezing technique... anticipate earlier... not let it sneak up on me. I hope it doesn't involve some bizarre preparation that will make me look like someone trying to escape a wasp.
