You're in luck! Cervical recovery is a lot easier than lumbar. There is sometime a bit of swelling that takes place after surgery. Be careful with food that you cut little bites to swallow. You should do fine and, at a young age, should recover fully. Take care and good-luck with your surgery. It sounds like you are in good hands.
