Would you consider this Mobi-C failed and what would be the next step?

Hello @rossetti99, I moved your message and combined it with an existing discussion on Mobi F failure - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/would-you-consider-this-mobi-c-failed-and-what-would-be-the-next-step/ - so you could meet the members who have discussed a situation similar to yours.
@rossetti99, If your ortho doc has taken an x-ray and has diagnosed it as a failure, will there be an open discussion and those results shared with your PA?

@JustinMcClanahan , thank you
I"m not sure I would classify it as a failure. I hope not. However 2 years I was having more pain than usual down my arms so had a myelogram and it showed bilateral foraminal stenosis. It was mild. I'm hoping it can just be cleaned up and not removed. The area above the disc replacement c5 c6 has deteriorated but I'm not sure all of my symptoms are coming from that area. I had a steroid injection at c5 c6 and it helped about 40% but has worn off. I am on an oral course of steroids which has resolved some of my symptoms like loss of spatial awareness and dizziness and decreased the pain to a tolerable level. Steroids are not a long term solution as I already have severe osteoporosis. I also have seropositive RA.
