I have a disc problem c5-C6 and I had it fixed with Laser surgery. At first, it felt better. Now it's so painful. My neck hurts all the time. I'm planning on going back to the pain management doctor for facet injections. They helped a long time ago, when I got them. I just don't know what to do. It hurts when I wake up. I also have arthritis in my back from what the Ortho doc said from my MRI. and some Degenerated disc disease. Anyway, I'm thinking this arthritis in my neck is making migraines worse. I have them every day anyway, and I'm not getting releif with Lamictol I've been on. But.......I'm going to stay with it, and increase the dose that the neurologist suggest. Just wondering if this could be part of my migraine problems.
