I haven't posted on here in months, but I'm really rattled now. I had a complete fusion in July 99 with wonderful success. I'm fused throughout my entire thoracic & lumbar vertebrae. All has been well. I noticed that I had sort of a "lump" behind my neck/on my shoulders about a month ago. I assumed it was back fat b/c I had a baby 5 mos ago & am still shedding the last 20-some pounds. However, I realized today that it's not fat. It is definitely my spine, & I am concerned that it's beginning to curve above my fusion.
I can't call my doctor until Monday, & I will have to go thru all sorts of hoops to get to an orthopede because my husband is in the military, & TriCare isn't precisely efficient. So I'm looking for someone - anyone - who has had or currently has a cervical curve. What kind of treatment did you have, etc. I'm shaken up b/c I thought I was done dealing with this. Thanks much.
