Last year had two L4-5 Laminectomy/Discectomies with Cauda Equina, C7 rupture with bone graft/plate/screw Fusion. Slow healing with Sjogren's has now progressed to this within wks. There is some finger/hand/wrist/forearm numbness/tingling that seems positional. MRI a few mos ago showed 5 min disc herniations, no cord compression, arthritis, severe disc degeneration and NeuroSurgeon states "Disc's are all like Goo and very difficult to do surgery on". What do ou think is up? Thank you
