from the other side
Hello friends,
I had the surgery last week and am now 5 days out. The terrible spike in my neck feeling is gone but has been replaced by new different pain which I hope is just post surgery, distraction, air, or whatever. Both shoulders and most of the length of my spine are very sore. My hands are still a bit tingly but not like the lines of fire I had before. Is this typical? I'll go back and read more of the post op recovery posts. I'm so grateful to have found this community and hope the newest members are able to find hope, info, and relief.
