ABOUT ME:

I was injured 3 years ago and left with a neck and lower back injury. I had a neck fusion x3 (c-3,c-4,c-5 to c-6 and c-7) last May. This was not my wisest choice and I have lived in pain for a year now with this. I feel two times this winter and re-injured my neck and right shoulder, this has sent me to the hospital twice with strock like seizures and no one can figure out what is wrong. I have pain in my head that starts in my neck and runs to my head and that is when I have the black outs and numbness. I wo three years ago I was a very active women and my husband and children could not keep up with me. I worked 60 hours a week and cared for my grandbabies on the weekends. Now I have a hard time seating through and hour of Church. I really need some help from people that know what I am going through.
