Hi All, Im new to the community. My name is Amy. On August 1, 2007 I had a discetomy and fusion of the C5-6. Since the surgery, I feel NO improvement. As a matter of fact I feel worse. At first, my left hand was numb and I had severe pain from my neck through my left arm, with mild numbness in my right hand. With extreme weakness in my legs and arms. I am also fatigued. Now I cannt feel either hand my feet keep tingling and my knees keep giving out. My orthohad me get another MRi last week and said the surgery is healing great, but hold on a sec let me go get the written report. His receptionist comes back a min later and says you can go.And handed me a copy of the report. I thought Dr.'s were supposed to explain these reports to you. Especially when there are terms like early desiccation is seen or forminal narrowing seen. I feel like im not being taken seriously and I keep getting the run around. I am exhausted and in pain, does anyone have some advice or similar story. Thank You
