What's it like having a neck fusion? Does it hurt? Any pain pills? Aren't you afraid of further herneations above and below the fusion? What exactly happened to your neck and what did they do? If this is not appropriate for this forum discussion please send me a Personal message.
I have 2 herneated discs, C-4-5, 5-6. Had a foramenotomy to open foramen from pinched nerve, but they left in the herneations and a big bone spur. I have been having problems since my surgery. I have been told to fuse the whole mess, but I don't want to. Were you in pain before surgery? Did the surgery reduce the pain? Do you have any other pathology in there still? Carl had a foramenotomy, but they did it athroscopically, and he had a far better outcome than mine- they cut open the whole back of my neck. Do you have any trouble from paralysis and weakness and instability in the neck and shoulder area from devastation of muscles and nerves along your neck and shoulder area from the surgery? What did you do for PT?

What did you think about Mr. Clinton holding up all of LAX and the whole LA area for hours just to wait on the tarmac for some Hollywood stylist at 200$/hour to come give him a trim?

Interesting that you should mention the Texas connection. Here's something more on that, and related, I think, to what we could be talking about. Just some further food for thought...

FAA Sets Building Limits In Crawford
Until President Bush leaves office, anyone wanting to build or erect anything more than 50 feet tall in his hometown of Crawford, Texas, will not only need the normal building and zoning permits, he or she will also require FAA approval. The purpose of the rule, finalized February 6, is to ensure that new construction doesn't get in the way of the various low-level flight patterns the Marines and Secret Service have worked out to make sure President Bush gets to his ranch in safety and security. It's not only pilots that face restrictions in President Bush's hometown. Now that the comments (all three of them) on the rule have been received, read and pretty much discounted, the rule has been finalized. The rule has actually been in effect since last April 22 but was considered an interim rule because it was enacted without the normal 90-day comment period. The comments received warned of impact on the local business community and one commenter questioned whether every future president would cause changes to his hometown's local building standards. The FAA isn't ruling that out, but it also is stressing that each project is considered individually and, if it doesn't pose a hazard to the president's flights, will be allowed to proceed.
