Hi everyone I've just been diagnosed with cervical radiculpathy,I'm literally climbing the walls it's horrible I'm getting very depressed and it's really affecting my life,Ive currently started physio,I just wondered if anyone has had surgery as it doesn't sound very nice if it's worth doing also my doctor seems to think been in pain is ok I'm struggling to get pain relief and not sleeping either don't know which way to turn 😢

I have that diagnosis also, am doing the recommended exercises which don't help much. I find the pain mostly tolerable and I think this is something I just have to live with. I had surgery on my lumbar spine which went well, but there's no way I'd let a surgeon touch my cervical spine.

@nam093049 I had severe pain and many treatments failed to relieve the pain so surgery was the only option. An experienced neurosurgeon did the surgery and I am so grateful to him.
