New post. For this post I took a look at opioid-free surgery. This topic is on my mind since I'm facing another neck surgery. Please let me know what you think. #PatientChat #ChronicPain #Medx #PatientLeaderCertification https://www.alanbrewington.com/blog/2023/11/19/opioid-free-surgery

Got my x-ray report. There is a reason I'm hurting so much. My C3/C4 is declining fast in addition to bulging with a bone spur. Unless someone know magics, I'll probably have 3 plates & 12 screws in my neck in the near future. #ChronicPain #DegenerativeDiskDisease #PatientChat
