C4/5/6 Prodisc Nova, Bertagnoli. Germany

[fuzzy]

I made it through the surgery 2 cervical prodisk Nova by Dr. Bertagnoli on the 27th of November european time and am now on my second day post op. I had them get rid of the strong meds when I made the move from the "ICU" closely monitored station to the regular ward. My neck is sore and I am on ibuprofen 400 3 times a day and muscle relaxers. (not sure what they are) The ibu's are not quite enough as they wear of quick and then I have to wait for next dose. lying in bed hurts more then sitting or standing up. ...................
Symtoms of cervical myleopathy are better. No tingles but not all gone so far but better. I am sure it will take time.

Just went to xray and it shows some nice pretty pro discs that look perfectly placed.

Together with me is another american and she received 3 prodiscs (wow). her husband is with her every step. Earlier they took her of the strong meds and we walked to xray together!

The Bogen staff is excellent!
