Damn I feel your pain. I am on week seven of healing from a microdiscectomy. Not near as bad as a fusion but its my second one. Next time I will probably L5 S1 fused. I have 3 bad disc that are never gonna get better. Good luck and heal quick.

I had c5 and c6 changed and c5,6,7 fused in December. Went in 6am walked out hospital with no neck brace at 4pm. Surgery was best thing I did. The first few nights it was really hard to sleep and my throat was really sore. It defiantly gets better with time.
