ACDF Anterior Cervical Disectomy and Fusion Surgery, Internal Fixation Bone Graft, and Recovery

Comments: A closer, more personal look than usual, at the spine surgery experience. Even after carpal tunnel surgery in both hands (which helped drastically), I have suffered varying amounts of numbness in my right index finger over the past couple years. A couple months ago, I began experiencing a tingling up the back of both my hands and arms. Next I began quickly losing the use of my hands and have had to undergo "near-emergency" surgery. For those waiting for my videos about Violins, Legends, and Music, I apologize for the delay, and purchasing a copy of "Two Trees," "The Book of Honor" or "Clay Angel" would be especially helpful over the next few weeks.

My symptoms. Though I didn't mention the pain, sometimes extreme, and the tightness and soreness of my neck and shoulder muscles, etc.. The surgery and hospital experience. My recovery up until now (just a few days later). I hope that this video helps anyone looking for more information, and for those who might also be considering "disk replacement surgery," I simply didn't have the time to look into it. Music credits (used for educational purposeses) in this lesson by "The Romantic School of Music" include: Taylor Swift: "I knew you were trouble." (while exiting the Mustang) G. Donizetti: Una Furtiva Lacrima "L'Elisir D'Amore" (bandage removal) And never forget: "Music Makes Everything More..."
