Hello Friends,My name is Gloria.
I have had cervical spondylosis for perhaps 25 years.
However,it's getting worse.Have nerve impigement on 4 spots of my spine,
So epidurals are out.
Acupuncture and Northriptyline are my companions.
I am a former mountain climber and marathon runner.
Sometimes wonder if that contributed to
the wear and tear.
Now,in my 60's.I push myself to walk daily.
The surgery has been offered to me,but,
the surgeon is a nice honest man who said the pain may not go
away even with surgery , and there's a chance of being paralazed.
Wonder what my 70's and 80's will be like.????
Mom had it also. However, I have 2 aunts in their 90's.
Does anyone improve with this??
