I have bulging disk3-4-c5-c5-c6 horribe neck pain, left arm pain and feels heavy, weak, pins and needles in left hand. just had surgury on c6-c7 with fusion and hadware 4 months ago. had some kind of surgury on the back of the neck 4 years ago. forget the name of it. three months later same thing happens but with the left side instead of right. can they do surgury so close together? I cannot work more than 4 hour shifts due to pain and non working left arm. I am a cashier at costco and is very face paced with alot of neck and arm movement. I need to go back to 8 hours at work in one week, othewise they knock me down to part time and lose benefits. cannnot afford to live on dissability. I need surgery while I still have insurance.. What to do....... other words, I think i am screwed. will this get better in time. Surgeon told me to stop PT. take #120- 5 mg ocycodone a week. (still not enough)done the shots with no releif. tried some nerve medicine but i have bad . reactions to all those medicines. they do not agree with me. part that sucks is that I believe it was helping my neck pain. not sure as i was only able to take it for two day until symptons got to bad. had to stop. any doctors out there with any advice or ideas? please help as my time is limited. thanks, Mike
