Hi, can you tell me where you had Adr ?
Had a C5/C6 replacement in October, 2013. Best thing ever. Pro-Disc C. Done at USC in California. Out of the hospital within 20 hours of surgery and back to work 2 days after. Easy peasy
You can try acupuncture treatment. It will help you to relieve soon. Read about acupuncture at https://plus.google.com/100923324972089266153/about?hl=en.
The surgery went very well and I am now almost 3 months post op. Good luck!
How did your surgery go? I'm having activ c replacement c4/5 and c5/6 done next month. Also will need c6/7 done in the future. Hoping the end result will help my right hand as only 50% pressure function and also stop agonising pain in shoulder, elbow and chest. Which is controlled with lyrica - pregabalina 25mg 3x daily. Wonder drug for me. Couldn't cope before.
I just had a multi-level ADR (Mobi-C) at the C5-C7 here in Colorado by Dr. Kenneth Pettine and a fusion at the L5-S1 on October 20th. So far so good and minimal pain (usually if I sit to long). I can't believe how great I feel especially after living in pain for 16 years. If anyone is considering ADR surgery and live near Colorado, I highly suggest Dr. Kenneth Pettine.
