Melody,
Know you don't want to hear this again. I'm 9 mos post-op, 4-level Cervical and couldn't begin to think about working. There is the age difference. lol! Have been on and off the computer for few minutes at a time today and experiencing much more pain and needed extra meds.
I got a reply from Mark: If you have multiple adr's you are lucky to be pain free. Didn't like that! Also LISIBUG on adrsupport is 22 months post-op and still having problems. You might want to read her thread posted on 01-02-2009 Questions for those with multi-level cervical adrs
I know good news only, Sandy
