I was in an accident awhile ago and had a neck injury that didn't heal with treatment. Now it was suggested that I get a C5-6 fusion. My question is that prior I was very active in sports. I did triathlons and swam on a masters team. I'm also a teacher and you'd be surprised how many times I've had things thrown at me and I've had to break up fights. I also work on cars and you can find me crawling under cars, etc. Roller-coasters are probably off limits. my daughter loves to tussle with me. She's a wrestler and a rough basketball player. Probably can't do those activities too huh.

What will I not be able to do after surgery? What will the longterm impact be?

How much therapy will I need? PT

I had a dream last night and a student playfully jumped on my back and I could hear the screws breaking.
