Seriously, I’ve got a deteriorated set of neck vertebrae thanks to extra crispy radiation cancer treatments weakening them. Now I’ve had to push for the risky operation, front and back opening, to install a logt of hardware so this man can hold his head up in it’s natural position. And by God that is true and I will endure that. I have the Vanderbilt/VA willing to go and only a super detailed set of scans remain. I’m willing to risk paralysis or crippling for the regaining of full ability/mobility. Or should I settle for a head looking down with a neck collar for life? I have to go for fix. I guess I’m asking someone to tell me alternatives as I’ve always been stuck in a warrior mindset.
Hey MikeTackNailer,
Sorry to hear about your dilemma. I am unfamiliar with this procedure, and I have no suggestions, other than to pray and ask God to guide you to the right decision. I wish you the best.
