Pre-Op
Thank you for sharing, you are so knowledgeable. I have a lot to learn about these issues.
I passed my bone density test with flying colors, on to Pre-Op tomorrow and surgery on Wednesday to get the M6-C TDR at C-5-6. I hope it relieves the pressure on my spine so I can get better use of my arms and hands with less pain.
I am a little concerned about experiencing the swallowing problems several people have discussed on here. I also worry that my spine and nerves will have some long term damage but hopefully all will go well for me.
Prayers and good thoughts appreciated on Wednesday.

I injured three disc in my neck with a fractured vertebra and compression on C-5 that caused severe pain, numbness and weakness in both arms and legs.
After a lot of research, I had a successful M6-C Total Artificial Disc Replacement on C-5-6 as part of a clinical trial, to stabilize my neck and improve my health. So far I am doing well and feeling better every day.
