I had the titanium plate and hardware put into my cervical spine via neck 20 days ago. I had some pretty tough pain. It was exacerbated by a fall going into the hospital. They did an emergency CT scan of my head because I had a swollen head. I think that's why my head hurt after surgery. They had a small neck pillow under my head when I woke up. I threw it in the floor because it hurt. They brought me a flat pillow, and I was good to go.
I slept a lot. Got up the next day ad walked with a walker to the bathroom with PT. I went home 2 days later.
I go back on the 7th to talk about the thoracic part of my back.

I want to go back to work. Im cleared to but hubby thinks im not ready. I feel I am. Im planning to try it tomorrow.

Haven't worked all week because United Healthcare reps used my computer and office to check their charts. They wanted us to pull and mail them. Ummm no! 205 charts. No way!
I worked from home a couple hours but that's it.

Made a new appointment with another neurosurgeon about my back. I hope they can do something. In pain and on a walker is no fun. y 92 yr. old Dad doesn't want me to have any more surgery. But the bad disc can keep slipping and I could be paralyzed. so i'll do whatever they tell me to do.
