Cervial spine surgery was it neccessary?

Guest · Guest

I was diagnosed with severe Cervical Spine Stenosis. From C-2 to C-7. It has been 2 1/2 months since my surgery and I have no relief. I feel like the surgery did nothing for me. All my synptoms are still here and my doctor says that it will take up tp 1 year before I feel a relief. Is this normal?

I had a spinal stimulator revision 2 months ago and since I have had horrible headaches and pain in my eyes along with intermitant dizziness and nausea. Has anyone else EVER experienced this?

I too have been bounced around from doc to doc test to test for 2 years...finally a orth. doc. requested a discogram...the discogram stated C-4-5 and C5-6 where herniated..I had the surgery 8/2 and no improvement...when i read the discogram myself it seems there was a typo...and c-45 was fine it was c5-6 and c-6-7 where the herniated ones. The doctor operated on the wrong dics and then plated it and put 6 screws (it was a fusion) I too am in more pain than before my surgery..they too keep telling me to give it time. I believe the surgeon should of seen the typo and operated on the correct dics! What should I do?
