home from hosp.
hi all,
came home yesterday. Surgery went well. I ended up having a cervical laminectomy and foraminotomy c6-7. EMG studies said I had no nerve damage and NS said I had a substantial amount of nerve compression. So much for tests!!!!!! Anyway, just wanted to say thanks to everyone on the boards for all your support. It really helped me through some of the bad times. Will write again when I am able. On restricted activities, no stairs etc. And again with these steroids. I feel like the good year blimp lol
