Surgery Today!
I’m having
spinal
surgery
today in my neck. So glad it’s finally happening but rather nervous too. I have cervical stenosis and myelopathy so I’m hoping this operation will stop the progression of spinal cord damage 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻. Has anyone else had this happen.

Goitre and Spinal Surgery
I am awaiting Cervical
Spinal
Surgery
but also have a multinodular enlarged goitre. The spinals team says the goitre needs to come out first before they can get to the discs in my neck. It’s all a waiting game at the minute. I have a very high anaesthesia risk too.

Bring on more sh*t
The universe has really given me a kick in the teeth this year, with
spinal
surgery
resulting in nerve damage in legs along with the RLS....I think the AF is caused by the amount of anxiety and stress I have had. Sometimes I wonder if it is worth waking up.....

Following further (failed)
spinal
surgery
in 2020, I was referred back to another Lincolnshire PC (Connect Health). As they only operated via phone calls, I contacted the then CCB who kindly arranged for me to see a ‘Clinician’ at our GP surgery.

hypoxic, advice please completely overwhelmed.
my father went in for a optional procedure to relieve nerve pressure in arm -
spinal
surgery
. During this an accident occurred and an artery nicked where he bleed out and needed massive blood transfusions and packing of the artery.

Finally got my Neurosurgeon appointment!
I have cervical myelopathy and
spinal
stenosis, with osteophytes pushing into my
spinal
cord.
Surgery
should be within the next 6-8 weeks. I’m currently taking Leflunomide and Hydroxychloroquine and spoke to the Rheumy nurse yesterday about whether I stop them for surgery.

Mechanical mitral valve enquiries
I'm looking to speak to anyone that has had a Mitral metal heart valve replacement and required another operation specifically
spinal

Alternative to Naproxen
I recently had
surgery
for
Spinal
Stenosis in my lower back, but on coming out of hospital developed a dvt in my leg. Due to this blood clot I have been put on Rivaroxaban (blood thinners).

Does spinal fusion help take away severe pain from kyphosis due to broken vertebrae? (T10-T12)
I was wondering has anybody had this
surgery
the
spinal
fusion of T10 through T12 and does it end up taking any of the excruciating back pain away? Or is it just going to fix the curve and keep it from progressing further making me more hunched over?

My Back prproblems starstarted in the Military
My back problems began while on active duty in the Coast Guard. They diagnosed me with degenerative disc disease and osteoporosis. In May of 2019 I had a Lamondectomy, and in 2020 I had a discectomy. In November, 2023 I had a tubular decompressioin. This comming Fall I will be having a spinal fusion.
