2nd Cervical Fusion

2nd Cervical Fusion

I had a cervical fusion C5-7 (10 years ago).  I've been experiencing alot of neck pain once again and recently had an MRI ordered by my primary doctor.  It appears that C4-5 is bulging on the nerve adding pressure which makes my right hand go numb.  Disk C6-7 has slipped and have a grade 1 retrolisthesis.  I go see a neurosurgeon on May 2nd.  Should I expect another fusion to stabilize my neck?
