Looks like surgery for cervical myelopathy may be in my future. Neck issues have been getting worse over time and I have opinions from both an orthopedic and a neurosurgeon on the issue and both agree in principal on the nature of the problem and the possible solutions which involve either an anterior or posterior surgical approach.
Won't bore you with details, but after a lot of soul searching, consultations and personal research it looks like posterior laminectomy is going to be the best bet.
Everyone agrees it's not going to be fun, and I've heard lots of good and bad war stories involving each.
There is a lot of age, wisdom and experience on this board and I'm wondering if anybody with personal familiarity with this procedure would like to share or offer any advice.
