Persistent pain post-anterior cervical fusion C4-C7?

Cervical spine is most important because I may become paralyzed if not done due to cord compression. My concern also is the stability of vertabrae above and below as they are also deteriorated and this hormone blocker I’m on for cancer causes bone loss and I have to take it for 10 years. At this point I’m tempted to never go to a doctor again. I’m pushing for a death with dignity act to be passed by the Pennsylvania legislature

@karen1103 You do have a lot to consider. Are there other effective cancer treatments that don't thin your bones? I don't have any experience in that and don't know what is possible. I hope your various specialists will discuss this and figure out your best options. There is so much research out there, perhaps there may be some new information somewhere that could help.
