Suggest Treatment For Symptoms Of Cervical Spondylosis
Question: Symptoms, attributed to herniated bulging disks in neck, but WHICH NEVER BOTHERED ME until beginning two months AFTER MY STROKE...
Hot, or chilling tingling in right hand, left arm, sometimes going down my left leg quickly. Tried fish oil it tore my stomach the fuck UP, so THAT'S pout of the question, I want to curse God for it! This is interfering oppressively with my fucking life! WORSE after I have gotten out of bed an hour later. Today, riding bicycle, the unpleasant tingling felt also across my chest. The activity in the woods made the tingling in left arm go away, which returned after I came home and got on computer. All fucking day long this god damned hot nerve sensation in my fucking right hand! Sry 4 the cursing. This is enough to make me want to kill myself and throw this fucking life in God's face!
In 2008, while I'd be panhandling, sitting outside, I began to notice everytime I'd turn my neck back FROM looking to my left, I'd hear crunchiness - snap, krackel, POPS - I called them.
(WHAT the hell ARE they, anyway?)
After my stroke, 10 - 2013, I've experienced tingling sensations and wooziness which doctors have attributed to herniated, ulcerated, bulging neck disks.
I have to ask myself, are these ungodly nerve sensations starting to be felt in my left foot. Sometimes I bend my neck down to type and feel a quick wooziness - very unpleasant, and I'd curse God for it, but... He might make ME worse if I DO. How unbearably will these sensations get, say, 10 years from now?
HELP ME DISTINGUISH between what the fucking stroke is causing, what the henriated disks are, and what both together are causing.

Brief Answer:
Symptoms more likely to be due to cervical spondylosis.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
The tingling sensations in the arms, lightheadedness on specific neck movements, weakness in the arms are all caused by bulging discs in the neck. In addition to muscle relaxants and methylcobalamin supplements, regular neck isometric exercises under the guidance of a physiotherapist will help in controlling further progression of the problem.
The symptoms of stroke depend on the area of the brain which is affected by stroke. The symptoms that you are experiencing are likely to be due to cervical issues and methylcobalamin deficiency. Starting with proper supplements will help in early improvement.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.

Can artificial disk replacements work, and better than ordinary back or neck surgery? I';m-a kill myself if it gets much worse. FUCK God for this!
Brief Answer:
Disc replacement will help.
Detailed Answer:
Hello.
Thanks for writing again.
Artificial disc replacement will help but if regular exercise is not done then these degenerative changes will happen in other discs too and will cause discomfort. It is best to do regular exercise and in case the symptoms are still persistent then get the surgery done.
Hope my answer is helpful.
