I am due to see a Neurosurgeon in a few weeks due to severe degeneration and stenosis in my cervical spine. Has anyone suffering from this seen a Neurosurgeon? Any advice as to what will happen at the appointment, texts etc. The nearer it gets the less I want to go!

    I've had lumbar spine issues but I guess things will be similar? In my experience you have a thorough examination and history taken and then they order tests like MRI, X Ray, CT etc. Don't fret about the appointment - it could be the beginning of getting better.

    Can't help but I hope it goes well.
    If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.
