Thank you so much for your interest and input, Jennifer.
I am not currently being seen by Mayo living in Michigan. I have been involved with a MFR therapist now for a couple of years and there are times in which the therapy will relieve some of the pain and tingling but not always (though it’s very relaxing!)

After having seen a neurologist who suggested an EMG to make sure we were not dealing with ulnar or carpal tunnel (both seemingly ruled out), I next visited a physiatrist a couple of days ago. He had all studies done in the past several years for comparison. He is suggesting PT, a couple of dietary supplements and CT bracing at nite to rule out those same causes. I felt he was very thorough in his exam. But as a nurse married to a physician and as someone who has worked in the exercise world for years (I’m sure that wear-and-tear didn’t help), I am finding like many others in this forum that what I am feeling on the ‘inside’ does not translate always to what doctors are testing for thru exam on the outside especially if one is on the cusp of having severe symptomology present or tetering on what is difficult to discern.

At my age and after already having had two previous cervical surgeries, I am not going to be a fan of anything other than conservative modalities.
