This is all helpful to me as a newly diagnosed DISH patient who has been told I need surgery to remove spurs from 4 discs in my neck and fusions. Seeing a neurosurgeon at Mayo JAX for his take. Would love to hear the experience of others who opted for surgery in JAX, if they are happy they made that choice, and how the recovery was. And how many DISH patients had to have subsequent surgeries for regrowth? I live alone and can't imagine what my post surgical needs might be. Did anyone go into a facility from the hospital short term or have home health? Thanks for any insight.
