Default Surgery with Nick Boeree 8/31/11

Hello,
I am scheduled for surgery with Nick Boeree on 8/31/11. Most of my info is in my signature. I am very active, and am hoping that this surgery will restore me to my normal lifestyle I have had to shelf for the past few months. Love yoga, hiking, anything outdoors. I am having 2 level ADR, C5-6 and C6-7, with M6-Cs. If anyone has had this surgery with Dr. Boeree, I would love to hear how you are managing post-op, especially if you are a year or more out. I am getting more nervous as the surg date approaches, but I also cannot wait for relief.

Thanks!
