Thank you so much for the welcome! I will be doing a C5-7 Mobi-C disc replacement with Dr. Petinne in Loveland Colorado. I feel like I've had a headache at various degrees for years and I'm really praying that this will work. I've been fortunate that I don't have the radiating arm pain, it is all in my neck, head and traps. I'm a mom of 3 ( 12, 13 and 16) and would love for my children to have a strong, healthy, vibrant mom. I'll try to keep everyone posted with my progress so that I can share my experience
