I had ACDF June 2012 c-5 & c-6.
Will/can your neck continue to fuse after a year from surgery? Is there such thing as "fused a little bit"? Or.... you're surgery worked by fusing or it didn't work? I'm taking Gabapentin 300mg & Flexeril 10mg, do some continue to take the meds as a maintenance medication?

Hi Tracey
I have been reading up on your operation you had and if you just had vertebrae bone fusion they say that's 93% successful and if it was plated and screwed bone fusion its 100% success as long as all do's and donts were followed.
As for the Gabapentin 300mg is for long lasting pain from nerve damage so if your pain free i should think you could try stopping then then if you do get pain you know you need them. Flexeril 10mg is a muscle relaxant so not really sure about that hun.
Hope this helps you and I hope all goes well in the future for you :-)
