My gosh David. Thank you so much for telling your story. I'm scheduled to have a multi level cervical operation. I've lost the use of my left arm because of severe stenosis. I play guitar and keyboards in 2 bands and I started to notice I wasn't able to press my fingers on my guitar strings or play the piano. I've lost coordination and the more you fight it the more exhausted your muscles get and you lose all control. I am hoping and praying for a good outcome like you had. You are so happy now and appreciative. Thank you for spreading the good news , you give people hope for a better tomorrow. Thank you
Im stoked 4 ya man. Hopefully it was a long term success of relief and functionality 4 you.
How is your mobility? I had a fusion from C3 to C7. I lost at least 50% of my mobility. Its very hard to drive now, cannot see cars coming from the left or right. Went therapy, no improvement. Lot of neck pain, stiffness constantly no matter how much I stretch ... Its been a year since surgery. Update almost 3 years, horrible mobility. Cannot look up at all, barely able to look down. Left and right I have lost at least 50%.
Hello next month I'm having the same thing 5 level c3 to c7 that's what I'm worried about my neck movement now is bad and I'm in constant pain he said my pain level should be better and will still have some stiffness? And worried about driving
I don't like to drive turning my head to the left not good
@@jlutie2943 How did your mobility turn out? Mine is still horrible. I initially had C4 to C6 and I was okay for the most part with most mobility. But when I had the car accident in early 2020 they fused C7. That is when my mobility took a serious hit. .
Well it's been over a year and I'm not happy
Still in pain everyday neck movement is not good don't like driving
Just got a CT scan next week to doctor for update
How are you doing now @@jlutie2943
@synthartist69 how is your mobility now
I've had numbness and weakness for the past 1-2 yrs to the point I cant play guitar any more. I cant tell if I'm fretting the string.....I have no pain, just numbness and loss of sensation. Hoping I get get to playing guitar again after my surgery in 3 weeks. Thanks for posting.
How did your surgery go?
I’m a guitarist with three level cervical fusion. I’m a real success story. Get to a real doctor.
I don't see no scar on the neck?
It is probably posterior
How is your strength and do u have headaches or any pain in your neck.
Awesome❤
How long ago did you have your surgery? What levels did you have done? Six is extreme. Point out your scar. I’m calling bs, but I’ll eat a plate of crow and apologize if you can prove it. This video sounds like a ridiculous extended commercial, and should be removed if it’s untrue. It’s not nice to those that actually have cervical spine issues.
Yeah, he has had some level of fusion, I can see his loss of mobility, but not sure if it is six levels. He shouldn't be able to move his head at all.
I kinda dont believe it either honestly
Posterior or Anterior fusion? What levels?
Is it really true. can you share the x rays
I just had one done at Loyola Hosp outside Chicago ...doing well but being older its going to take a longer for full recovery
Of course it’s not true. This video is misleading nonsense.
Can you drive?
I can barely drive with a multi level fusion. Lost 50% mobility... its awful.
Of course he can. This video is bs.
How many levels ?
Dude says six. He hasn’t had one.
Sounds like an advertisement
This MF is cappin like a MF...
Did Dr go in the back of the neck? I don't see no marks, or is he a actor ?
They typically go through the front. Scars are not too bad. They look like a fold in the skin. The fatter your face the less scarring you notice. When I lost about 50lbs the neck looked more noticeable.
@@synthartist69 I had the surgery myself, I see zero signs on his neck
I had C3-T2 fused last April (2022) & was cut in the back of my neck. I had past surgery, C4-C6, both were on front left & right side of neck. After 4 surgeries over the years I now have 4 rods & 19 screws in my neck along with 2 broken screws.
@@jklivin2007 sorry to hear that. How is your mobility?
I had three level that went bad eventutually and screws even busted off. Then He redid everything and I have 5 level now and thats gone bad- Now all levels are bad and a neurosurgeon wont evn talk to me- This guy is bs!!!
Probably went to a shitty surgeon
Bro people on here are suggesting u r a fake ??? Why don’t u speak up
you get spine fusion?
