H Mark,

Thanks for writing back. You seem to have alot of knowledge about these disc replacement surgeries.

To answer your question, no I do not have any spurs or anything else going on with my spine that would justify the sensations in my throat and neck.
And yes, I plan to discuss all that is going on with Dr. Zigler when I see him in a couple of weeks.

So in your broad experience Mark, have you seen or heard of individual's after their adr surgery have an exacerbatio of symptons the heal up and go away after a period of time? Or have you seen people with a chronic herniation with nerve aimpingement typically not become non symptomatic at all??? Not all surgeries change the symptoms. Sometimes the surgeries are necessarh to relieve the pressure off the nerve and prevent further damage.

Thanks for keeping the discussion open because there is no information even from the doctor as to what to expect regarding symptoms post surgery.

Have a wonderful Thursday!

Many Smiles,

Lyndies
