Herniated disc c-5/c-6 considering M-6
Hello,
This is the first time I have ever posted. I have a herniated disc at C-5/C-6 and am scheduled for surgery later this month for the M-6 disc. I am just wondering if anyone has the same type of pain I do. I do have some radiating pain, but the majority of my pain is on the sides of my neck (almost like deep muscle pain). I have been on anti-inflammatories for 2 years and that pretty well handles my pain, but I am starting to develop some side-effects from the medecine and feel that I need to get off of it.
My worry is that I have facet issues that are worse than my disc pain. Does anyone have similar symptoms?
