Default Cervical Burst Fracture - 1 year - no surgery SUCCESS!
Per Andrew... photos below.

Thanks for the good wishes... we saw the local doc this morning and will proceed with epidurals in the hope of avoiding surgery. Time will tell... he says about 50/50 on avoiding surgery with such a serious herniation.

1 year out... no surgery... symptoms as described above.
