Has anyone had a cervical laminectomy with fusion? SM

Posted By: Sally Forth on 2007-01-08
In Reply to:

My stepdaughter, who is only 25, is having one Friday.  I wanted DH to hire private duty nurse, by apparently the doctor told her today she will not be in any pain and will feel better than before the operation.  What?!!!!


I type these procedures all the time, but know very little about what happens afterwards.  Know people are out of bed fast, but no pain?


Any input will be very much appreciated.

i had cervical fusion
And that turned my entire back arthritic, not saying that is the norm but it is not abnormal either according to my physical therapist. Try NUCCA chiropractic first and only NUCCA Google it and see if there is one near you. Worked wonders on the spasming I had. Also I retired from my job after my surgery but I was a police officer so that is kind of different.
cervical fusion
Anyone had a cervical spine fusion and if so how long off work? Thanks.
cervical fusion
Thanks.
Has anyone ever had a spinal fusion, esp lumbar? If so .... SM
how long were you out of work.  Now, I realize that this will probably vary, but I am more than likely facing one in the future but am not quite there yet, and my mind is just full right now thinking about my back and what all we're going to do, then the surgery down the road.  Just wondering about being out of work after the surgery is done.  Has anyone ever had this?  Mine will be a multiple-level fusion, at that.  Thanks for any comments on this.

cervical cancer injection.
Me too! I agree with everything you have said. If I have to home school to avoid this I will. It was mentioned that this is being done in case a girl is rapped as well. Well the shot doesn't protect against all the other STDs so why not do something to all the males in the world then so that they cannot rape? We all know that will never happen. That would be crazy and so is forcing our daughters to do this.
Anyone who has had cervical cancer (not dysplasia)? (sm)
I have been dismissing symptoms as perimenopause but now I am VERY concerned I might have cervical cancer. I am going to the doctor today. But if there is anyone who has had cervical cance before, can we please talk?
But, isn't it supposed to prevent a percentage of HPV which causes the cervical cancer, after
you contract HPV, there is nothing you can do except monitor it. I have a friend with HPV and she is in the doctor's office every 3-6 months.
New cervical cancer injection mandatory in Texas next year

Just heard starting next year in Texas young girls are being ordered to get the new cervical cancer injection, just passed by the governor of the state so I am sure there will be a lot of talk about this.
