FINALLY had my follow up today from my MRI
Definitely have a herniated C6/7 in my neck. They are sending me for 2 weeks of aggressive therapy to see if I show any improvement. Luckily I am not having any pain as of now, and I am able to do anything I physically want to. Just this numbness that runs down my left arm when I stand or sit in certain positions. If therapy doesn't show any improvement, then I am looking at neck surgery for a spinal fusion
