I have had this pain ever since I a year and half ago to remove bulging discs and had a spinal fusion with a metal plate put in. Ir is a constant burning pain that is so bothersome and gives me sleepless nights, What do you think it is?

I feel it can be a pinch nerve in your neck which is still causing this pain. I would suggest you to show it to a orthopaedic surgeon and take his opinion. He may want to get a repeat Mri to see if there is no recurrence of disc.I would also recommend you to take pregabalin and methylcobalamine for pain relief.
