I had surgery on April 29th and had the C5/C6 disc removed and a man made synthetic disc inserted. I had no problem with my voice. Never lost it and it is normal to this date. I hope you and the docs can figure out what is going on with you. Keep me updated please. Thanks, Rose

I had the same type of pain that you are having with the lower back, butt and making your leg go numb....I found out that I have a ripped sciatic nerve by having an MRI done. I have been taking a muscle relaxer for this (Flexeril 10 mg 1 pill 3 times a day) for 8 years now and am usually pain free....hope this helps!!

Actually once I got smart and...
