Hi guys, thanks again for the replies and info.
I'm back home and the surgery was successful.
- 4hrs, 20 mins, on the operating room table.
- removal of disc between C5/C6/C7.
- bone marrow from my trochanter, packed between the vertebra.
- two titanium brackets screwed into the vertebra.
- I can walk, but it's funny to watch
- Fusion takes place in 6-12 weeks.
- pain/tremors in my arm and back
is gone.
- Percocet was RX for post surgery... no oxycontin.
No video of the procedure, but I have some decent photos. I'll post them ASAP.
Right now, I could most likely total 25 pounds: Squat 0/Bench press 15/deadlift 10.
