Dear James, Daniel and Emily
So I saw the Dr. yesterday for a follow up regarding my neck, after the X-Ray and MRI. And they told me that what I have is degenerative arthritis in the facet joints in my neck. Which caanot be cured on its own. However there is a procedure that they can perform to minimize or remove the pain for a temporary period of time. Then if I undergo some extensive rehab and muscle building in that area after the procedure the pain should become a thing of the past.
Here is an article on the procedure: Facet Neurotomy. From a rudimentary google search this morning this is not some oddball procedure, they have been doing it for 20 years now with success. So it looks like the way to go.
