Has anyone dealt successfully with Cervical stenosis without surgery?

I would get the MRI and then see what they suggest based on the findings. They may recommend starting with non-surgical treatments (like pain injections) but it may show that surgery is needed to remove bone spurs, address any disc issues and make more space for nerves/nerve roots/spinal cord. Good luck!

Thanks for the advice. I’ll get it scheduled and hope for the best. My chiropractor said there’s a relatively non-invasive surgery that requires only a couple weeks of recovery time to open the space (if I remember correctly.) I guess the only way to know is to take that first step and have the MRI. I’ve always been scared to have one. Also I’m allergic to iodine. Do all MRI’s require dye?
