Yeah, I had C3-6 fused due to an motor vehicle accident. The surgery was a snap I did all the post-surgery things I was told, but I continued to have pain lower in my neck and into my arms. (I did feel a little unstable in my neck area, but my Neurosurgeon said it would get better eventually, which it did.) I had a Botox injections X2 with NO relief. I finally found a Pain specialist who performed Facet Joint Ablations with dramatic relief. Like any such procedure, the pain returned (nerves re-generating). I had this procedure again four times until these nerves finally gave up re-generating. It was such a relief, I was then off all medications until my Peripheral Neuropathy started three months later. My Mayo Neurologist said many people who have had a previous injury to the spine will develop Neuropathy. BTW, I am not and never was a diabetic which is the most common cause of Peripheral Neuropathy.
