Pages: 1 OCorNSD4me Gerry Lopez status Reged: 04/06/07 Posts: 1244 Loc: Some here, some there Disc impinging on C3/4 and C5/6.       #2339763 - 07/04/12 09:59 PM Edit   Reply   Quote   Quick Reply   Had an MRI this morning. I could take the constant numbness in my left arm, thumb and 2 of my fingers. Looks like a Anterior sublux causing spinal stenosis. My wife is a neuro ICU nurse who works Dr. Fredrick Marciano going to have him assess and advise. She seems to think I'll have to go under the knife. Going to make an appointment and will advise. However you did mention on another thread you don't advise surgery???? Ever heard of Marciano? Mahalo -------------------- Risks without consequence. Lead to a life of mediocrity.

Get a full evaluation and a run down on the statistics of the types of interventions. A lot of people simply have relief from the pain over time. I did. -------------------- Peace, Surf Doc Be safe, surf smart, know your limits!

It took me about 3 months to get back in the water. Post Extras:       Autoprax Michael Peterson status Reged: 01/24/11 Posts: 3023 Re: Disc impinging on C3/4 and C5/6.
