Well, I've been off work since about the first of this month and the Dr. says there is a need for an ACDF C5 through C7.(anterior cervical discectomy fusion) So, two discs come out and three vertebra get fused with some bone grafting, hardware, screws and such. Scheduled date is 3/13. At 60 years old and a veteran of numerous trips into the OR I am not looking for sympathy, although a reduction in neck, shoulder, arm, hand and finger pain would be great so I can get back to doing some shooting. However, I am curious if anyone here has ever had this procedure done or knows someone that has that could add some insight into what the next few weeks might bring. If your not comfortable posting here a PM or e-mail would be sincerely appreciated.
