How is your health condition now? Is your health good?

[@maisie6904]

Had same surgery a while back - so much unbearable pain prior to procedure - so much better now - in my 70s ❤

[@MD-ty3fc]

Thank You So Much.😢😢😢😢😢 I'm having surgery today. I pray the Heavenly Father to be present in my Surgery and my sister who is my Angel. Thank You for your kindness, and sharing your experience with us, feel better and God Blessed You. ❤❤. Thank You So Much.

[@LearnAtMyExpense]

I had C3-C7 (four level) ACDF 7 weeks ago. Every person's recovery is different. I was expecting a much harder recovery based on all of the videos out there like this one, but I was walking (in the hospital corridor) the afternoon of surgery, and was walking miles per day within a few days after surgery. The surgeon I used insists on a hard cervical collar for the first 6 weeks. This week I met with him and both the collar and all restrictons from activity were removed. My point: not every ACDF surgery recovery is as difficult as many of the videos on youtube would have you think.

[@richmikol7165]

Happy you did so well!

[@mhovey55]

I'll have my 4 level ACDF in January, I've had 2 single levels done before & the recovery was easy, I just can't imagine this 4 level being as easy, we'll see 🤞🤞🙏

[@LearnAtMyExpense]

@@michelelisa1420 I've lost about 20%, but it does not hinder me. The only time I notice it is when needing to look behind me when driving - changing lanes or backing out of a parking spot. I'm very active now, playing pickleball daily (usually 1.5 - 2.5 hours) and also take a yoga class once or twice a week. I was never not able to brush my teeth or tie my shoes, even right after surgery I was able to do that. I will post a video soon comparing before/after range of motion. I took video of my range of motion the day prior to surgery.

[@mhovey55]

Thats awesome to hear 🤞🙏 my surgery goes as well

[@whatsupdocchemdog5994]

They did ALL four levels in the same surgery? Curious because I was told they can only do 2 levels max with each surgery session.

[@ITSHProductions]

I have a question We have bathrooms only upstairs Can you get upstairs

[@rdavis46]

I had the same surgery back in 2019 due to 2 of my disc collapsed. Recovery wasn’t to bad and I don’t have any more pain in my neck. Wish you a speedy recovery!

[@heatheraustin1757]

Thank you so much for this. I have so much anxiety leading up to it, my surgery is 9/11/23 and I've been researching. Most of what I hear is negative so I love finding the upbeat and positive sides. ❤🙏

[@anti-victimGenX]

It's very worrying isn't it! I find out when for mine on 19.10.23. Just looking forward to using my arm and hand, having feeling back, and this "nerve root" being released! It's GOT to be better than what I've got now! Good luck Heather. X

This person is a GREAT guy. Appreciate the humility, very detailed information, and calm and clear delivery. No wonder you have 100k subs. Good man.

[@rubyearmorer1952]

I am 3 weeks in recovery process of ACDF. Was in hospital for a week, had C3 THRU C7 done. My recovery is going well, in a medium soft collar, but still having swallowing problems, muscle spasms of my neck and is excruciating, especially in my shoulders. I had to have two incisions in my throat due to Insertion of filter fio blood clotting which is an issue in any surgery I may have. My talking, voice box, is coming back but right now it is sort of straining for me to talk. Otherwise I am taking my time about this bz i had a bulging disc as well. Right now, my dr advised me to not do too much, definitely no lifting, no exercise yet, walk around your house. Keep the area clean, still have stitches in both places(the throat)! My appetite goes and come. I find myself wanting very smooth portions of mash potatoes, apple sauce, ICE(Italian), smoothies(not too much citrus), Stouffers meatloaf/mashed potatoes. Just real mellow stuff until my throat is better. Thank you for sharing your experience with all of us. I am quite sure that all of us have experience some things from this surgery. I even had a recliner delivered to be put in my bedroom. It is so helpful. I never liked recliners, but I love them now!

[@Veterans2009]

It’s my 6th day ater my c4 c5 c6 c7 and nerve pain on and off for 22 years. Anyhow I got weak deltoild I stopped working but now it’s my 6th days after my operation and I am really happy Thanx be to almighty Allah

I'm so scared of getting this surgery. I have to do c5, c6 ACDF. Thank you so much for this vlog. I'm relieved to know your nerve pain went away right away. Did you take antibiotics and steroids after surgery? Hope you are doing well. I realize this vlog is a year old. bless.

[@Jobskillshare]

Oh wow I wish you a successful recovery. I think it's getting a lot better. I don't feel much pain or have sleep issues but the back is still sore. I walk like 5 to 6 times a day, light back exercise using a light elastic bands. I will update my journey after 28th. Thanks

[@Jobskillshare]

First, congratulations on a successful surgery. Next, practice patience and follow the doctor's advice. Once you're ready to resume activities, make sure to do so. For employment, consider something in the tech industry where you can work from home. You can explore our site, jobskillshare.org, if you wish to start a career in IT. Additionally, you can check online videos on how to engage in online selling through platforms like Amazon. While this isn't our area, opportunities are countless if you dedicate your time to it

[@Donelomusic]

@@JobskillshareThank you so very much, even though I don’t know anything about IT don’t know if I can do it, I will check the website and maybe I can start learning. It might be hard for me but I’ll try it. Working from home would be nice.

Iam a 54 female with C5, C6 and C6, C7 due to a traumatic event that almost cost me my life back in 1992 l had to learn how to walk again they told me at the time that my injury's will come back to haunt me later in the future; it could be one month two years five years ten years twenty years it can and will happen. It has happened and by lying down it makes it worse to see point of waking me up out of a dead sleep l thought am l having a heart attack or stroke because l cannot lift my arms. After nerve testing they found that l had severe carpal tunnel in both left and right hands and they postponed my Cervical Stenosis surgery and told me l needed to have the Carpal tunnel surgery first due t on the severely level was at its highest. Why they said it must be done in this order is they said it's all connected. Okay why? They said if they went ahead with CS surgery before the CT surgery they said that there is a high risk for my hands to come out looking like monkey hands. It would cause them to curl up. They are going to go in through the ER front.

Thank you for sharing. Going through the process of finding out what is causing my neck, arm and shoulder pain. Getting 2nd lot of scans done CT, MRI and motion Xray's this week. First lot of scans were not clear (Radiology software compatibility issues). Apparently, radiology department all use different software applications, so if the radiology software cannot talk with the software the Doctor uses to see the images, then the images are difficult to read. So, we will see what happens.
