It sounds like you are doing well for 1 month post op. I had posterior C4-T1 fusion done on 8/5/25 due to severe cervical myelopathy, which was affecting my gait. All is better now. I would not know I had the procedure except by the scar. Thanks and best wishes to you for a full recovery.

@orloffjr I am facing the same fusion. I sure hope I get as good as outcome as you have. That's wonderful news!
@orloffjr hello Hope this is reaching you in good health. I was wondering if we could chat at all about your recovery and where you're at now? I have had two failed anterior AC/DF surgeries. I decided to go to Mayo and they are suggesting that I do the exact same surgery that you had. I'm really looking for some success stories as I'm pretty nervous to go forward with it. Any info or engagement would be highly appreciated. Thank you so much. Nate.

@orloffjr thanks for the reply glad you too are doing well this is the 4th repair I have had done over the last 26 years and like the others I would do it again even with the c5 palsy issue. The pain relief and balance issues resolved for me as well. It's definitely how you how you look at the out come. It's about quality of life. So glad you have had a great out come.
