I saw Dr. Rand May 19th and reported only minor improvement since my last surgery. He feels it could still improve in another year. I guess he is more hopeful than I am. He is seeing arthritic changes in the vertebrae above my fusion and arthritic changes in my cervical vertebrae. He said it looks like two of the cervical vertebrae may have fused themselves which didn't surprise me since my range of motion has diminished and I am having daily pain in my neck, not so severe that I have to take pain meds though. He did suggest I take anti-inflammatories for the pain as needed. He said arthritis comes with aging. Darn!
Sorry about starting a new thread Linda. I didn't have the time to look back to find my old thread. If you want to move this, go ahead.
