Discectomy or Microdiscectomy Health Feed

I am almost 41. About 2 months ago I started having trouble swallowing solids. 6 weeks ago I had an anterior cervical discectomy with spinal fusion and since after the surgery I was struggling with even liquids that has gotten better and I can swallow some very soft solids however I take 3 spoonfuls or sips of something and feel bloated and uncontrollably full for hours. I alternate between diarrhea and constipation. I have frequent uti’s diabetic neuropathy, general fatigue. A few months ago I had what I think was a canker sore under my tongue all the way in the back together with an earache also on the left side and it took a month for it to go away I have the exact same thing in the exact same spot also with an earache on the same side x 10 days, medication for sore not helping hurts when I swallow. I also have not been able to regulate my body temperature for a while. For a few weeks I was sweating profusely but since my surgery i’ve been constantly freezing and about a week ago I started having cold sweats again. I’m either sweating, freezing or both at the same time and it changes from minute to minute. It was suggested that I may have autonomic neuropathy. I’m a breast and ovarian cancer survivor 3 1/2 years in remission. I receive botox injections for migraines every 90 days. I also have severe gerd but no heartburn that’s all I can think of off the top of my head.

But the good news is that micro discectomy surgery has a higher rate of success when it comes to relieving sciatica pain. When compared to many other options, this one is relatively minimally invasive.
