Tomorrow (Tuesday 5/22) I go in for cervical disc surgery in the neck. Had a pain in my arm a few months ago and had it treated with exercise and steroids. After a couple months I started getting numbness so they sent me for an MRI. Showed a bad disc and a pinched nerve in the neck.
Ironic in that the wife had a similar problem in January.
So I'll be out of action for a few weeks. So send your prayers tomorrow.
My prayers are with you Gus!! I hope you have a successful surgery and fast recovery. I will have you in my mind tomorrow for sure. Good luck my friend!!!
Ditto Gus. I will be thinking about ya all day. Good luck.
Prayers go with you Gus. I am healing up right no from lumbar disk fusion. Slow healing so take it easy and slow.

Sending prayers your way Gus...
Praying for you and the Doctors.
Best wishes for a speedy and smooth recovery.
Gus,
I will definitely be praying for you. I have nearly half my neck fused together and I am doing very well. Neck fusion's are generally very successful. Here are some pictures.

You got them. Good luck. I am putting my neck and back surgery off as long as I can. I suspect my neck and lower back are not going to wait much longer.
Prayers your way Gus!
Prayers my friend, praying everything goes well...
May the force be with you Gus!
Good luck!
Good luck and I wish you a speedy recovery.
I know 2 other people that had back surgeries for the same thing and they are both glad they did it.
You are lucky that you have access to quick health care. Where I am that is gone. My wife has had severe pain in her neck and upper back for years. When she finally decided to do something about it, it took 2 years to see a specialist, then 10 months to get a CT scan, then 2 months to see the specialist again and then we were told it would be another 10 to 12 months to get the nerves in her neck zapped. After 4 months of waiting she couldn't wait any longer and we elected to go to a private clinic and pay out of pocket and the wait for the nerve operation was only 2 more months. She goes in this Friday.
Again - good luck.
I hope and pray all goes well Gus! Kimmie and I will be thinking of you.
Hope all went well and your restin comfortably Gus.
Good luck!! See ya when you get back
