Pain,jolts,numbing
I had a fusion with titanium screws on my C6 and C7 in ‘96 from 2 fractures in a car accident. About a year ago I started having increased pain in my shoulders, neck and head. I have jolts while laying down in my jaw,arms and body. My forehead goes numb constantly. I had an X-ray and an MRI and they showed narrowing above and below where my screws are along with minor bone spurs. I have seen so many doctors and nothing has been done to fix this! I now have constant pain not only there but my whole body. To boot I also have narrowing in my L5 and S1 which I already had a discectomy for 12 years ago. I just had a brain MRI which showed T2 flairs with hypertension. The Neurologist said it’s just migraines. What migraines? I don’t have any! If anyone has any suggestions I would be so happy to know there is hope. Mine is slowly disappearing. A person can only be in pain for so long.
