try a very agressive chiropractor first. I have had three fusions and it has not solved my problems. I had a fixated rib years ago and chiroprator got it worked out after three months. I hope you find the same result. Cheryl

Default C1-c@

Saw the surgeon...actually 2 of them...both said it was too dangerous to do surgery and might give me new pain....one said the vertebrae is 'stuck' now and nothing will move it...I just have to wait until it fuses on it's own...I guess a chiropractor would be useless...
