Hello Judy,

Thanks for responding. i just read your blog in surgical outcomes and i also remember from time back.

The 2 level pro disc adr in my neck is not working. My body is full with neurological symptoms of cervical myleopathy and worsened over time. Latest Neurogist stated that the extreme curvature (lordosis) of my c spine is strangulating my chord on flexion or pretty much any activity and the only answer is revision to full neck fusion. In the meantime to move close to a neuro spine hospital from my current remote location as even the helocopter is not fast enough in case of a spinal chord injury emergency. Very encouraging.

Great, I am 3 hours away from a good hospital and am not simply moving out either. It seems if such a surgery happens I WILL have to arrange to live a lot closer to where the docs are for a while. Your blug illustrates that and for that I am thankful to you for sharing your experience.
