C4-5 Spinal Fusion | Arthritis Information

I would love to hear from anyone who has any stories of cervical spinal fusion (especially positive ones).

 
I am also hoping that when I see my rheumy next we will look into starting a biologic such as Enbrel or Humira.  We have put it off because I have had a couple of surgeries this year (actually it will be 3 in 11 months once I have this one done)
 
Anyway, I'd love to hear from anyone with advise.  I'm taking a month off work (I hope it's enough) because I have a VERY sedentary job (Admin Assistant), so I'm hoping to get back quickly.  I only have Friday and Tuesday to work, so I'm kind of looking forward to having some time off.  It's been a stressful few weeks with my daughter in hospital getting ECT's for her bi-polar ( she was in for 5 weeks, home for 3 and is now back in for about another 3-4)
 
Hubby is snoring on the couch so I guess that means its time to head to bed, lol!
Hi Pammy, have been wondering how you're doing.  Sounds like me, I had 3 surgeries last summer.  I don't have any personal accounts re:  fusion.  I just wanted to say hi and tell you I'll be thinking about you.  Take care.  Lindy
