We did go to Mayo last year and saw Dr F, he looked at the imaging and said he didn’t see much as fare as bulging discs and RO with pannus or CCI. Interesting how five neurosurgeons can look at the very same images and have completely different takes.
My son had ACDF surgery in October 2023 and will have fusion surgery sometime this year.
Sadly Mayo wasn’t much help as they couldn’t see the problems, things that I can clearly see on theMRI images as I learn more and more about these conditions. I deserve another Masters degree for all I’ve learned !

@debbiepinkston59 I remember we discussed a lot before you came to Mayo. How is your son doing now? Has the surgery improved his condition? Could you describe what levels were fused in October and what the next surgery will entail?

I'm glad to hear from you again.
