Is This The New Normal?

A MySpondylitisTeam Member asked a question 💭
Summit, MS

I had C fusion in January. There was no communication from neurosurgeon that my pain wouldn't go away but simply change it's form. Nothing was said about fatigue, brain fog, weakness/numbness in basically the left side of my body. Am I ticked off for nothing? Is this normal? Not sure what to do at this point

It seems to be normal for drs not to tell you what to expect unless you ask specific questions. Which vertebra were fused?

Chronic Neck Pain??

A MySpondylitisTeam Member asked a question 💭

Just wondering who else has neck pain and how common it is? I already had a double fusion for Cervical Myelopathy in 2020. My neck seems to bother me more than my back. Everyday it is on fire and feels very warm. I was told I also have AS at the Occipito-Atlanto-Axial Region.
