MRI
I am currently resting on my bed, typing this blog on my cell phone as I don't feel confident enough to use the computer to type and sit for even moderate hours.
its been a week since surgery and my sutures will be removed tomorrow.
I am exited because I have not been able to bathe completely because of the sutures and bandages. The bandage is now getting
kind of itchy and annoying,thankfully only a day is left.
I was diagnosed with cervical disk pro lapse after about a month since the day it actually a
occurred, when I tried to carry a heavy load. this condition occurs when the cartilage between two vertebrae interferes with the central nerves. for a month since the first episode, I haven't been able to sleep at night because of the pain, the pain is not in the muscles but somewhere inside.
the diagnosis of this condition took some time as some doctors told its a case of muscle tear while some doctors said its a case of rotator cuff injury.
finally a famous spine surgeon was able to diagnose it clinically (which means without any reports) and then we verified the same through investigative reports such as MRI. He confirmed the diagnosis with only one key question and physical inspection of the neck region.
The experience at the MRI machine was scary. the machine makes a lot of noise and the noise is mixture of noises when you fire an AK47 and aircraft engine together.
Finally after two months of complete rest, I have recovered to join office and work.
Its very important to select a good surgeon, cause your recovery very much is dependent upon his skills. I just had minor cut in the throat region where I got operated and surgeon chose to give a horizontal cut instead of vertical so that it naturally conceals with skin lines around the neck region
The whole expense was about 3 Lakhs and was sponsored through our office group mediclaim policy. I had my own policy, but it rejected claim since a small clause in the policy said that such diseases are covered after two complete years of premium payment.
My advice to all guys who have a desk job kind of lifestyle not to lift heavy weights suddenly as your body is not ready to take up such a load and the shock is transferred to the spine.
