4th nureo surgery cervical disc w/fusion and plates plus revision

by frisky2, Jan 07, 2009 05:27PM
This will be my fourth surgery I have posterior and anterior plates. My neck was broke at c-2 I am fused from c-2 to c-7 and now have to undergo another surgery to correct the compression of the nerve between c-6 and c-7 my last fusion and plate did not take...I am in allot of pain I am unable to sleep and I am numb from the back of my head down my neck into the left arm and last 3 fingers..I can't take the pain any longer and the pain medication is not of any help..Has anyone else had to go through so many surgeries. The type of surgery is cervical disc w/fusion and plate along with revision? I will be using a bone stimulator to help after the surgery..Does anyone have any ideas to help with the pain and to help me sleep...
