I had spinal fusion C-4-C-7 Feb 1st 2023. I was better. Since Aug I have had an extremely hard time swallowing, my gag reflex stops me from eating at times. When I turn you can hear cracking. I have had new x-rays and a ct with contrast. Hardware is all in place. Dr’s don’t know what to do, I take acid reflux meds, seen ent’s and gastroenterologists. Still no answers. The attachment says there is no peri implant superior there are fractures, that is from my surgeon. I do not understand and am getting no answers to the there are fractures.

I would see one of the top neurosurgeons in the area and let him or her review all x-rays CT scans and MRI's you have had after your fusion.The neurosurgeon will be able to tell you if you have fractures in your neck.It is a good idea to get a new opinion.Good luck.
