I am new using Connect - was seen at Mayo 1/18/22 for review of my cervical MRI. The PA said I have spondylosis at C5-6 and C6-7 and would need surgery in the future, i.e., disk replacement with fusion. i asked about the new motion preserving spine surgery and was told only applicable if I was 30 years old or younger. I googled around and Dr. Jeffrey Cantor has a great website and YouTubes about cervical stenosis. He talks about surgery with the misonix early enough to avoid fusion. He also has a place on the website to upload MRI images for a second opinion. I uploaded my MRI this weekend and will see what they say. I also plan to contact Hopkins for a consult. You mentioned Becker's Spine - I signed up a couple of years ago and get their daily email.
I tried to contact the Mayo neurology PA by calling the dept. and leaving a message - I wanted to ask questions about the misonix and pre-emptive surgery. My call was not returned yet.
