Just arrived home an hour or so ago from the hospital. Yesterday had an anterior cervical fusion of C6/C7 and bone spurs removed as well .
I must say my pain is frickin GONE!
I do have pain from the incision in my neck and feel like I have a frog in my throat. I also am an a**hole as I haven't smoked in two days .
I have two fingers with some numbness as well but it is better than pain.
I am very happy with my decision to do it ( so far ) |

You've got a headstart on most people giving up smoking; don't waste it!

Best of Luck,
