Ok so...I saw the neurosurgeon yesterday and here's the deal. I have c4/c5, c5/c6 issues. Slight bulging disk, spinal stenosis, pinched nerves, blah blah. He thinks a steroid shot could help. If not, then it's surgery time and I'll be out for 6-9 months. I've started Physical Therapy yesterday, and I'm going for a second MRI today that will be on some special machine that will give the neuro guy a clearer picture. I've never had a neck injury or big crash. However, in my younger days (like a dumbass) I would do flips on a wakeboard. I'm sure I had several whiplashes when I would miss a flip. So, given that, age, and skiing 4 days a week my body is now angry with me. So, Thursday is the steroid shot and let's hope that frees up the nerve and my strength returns to my bicep and deltoid. That's the goal!

Wow! I'm going to the neuro surgeon in 1 hour for almost the exact same thing. This is my first visit with him. MRI shows stenosis in c5,c6. I have loss of strength in my left bicep and deltoid. I hope my season isn't lost.

I'm at lakeside. There are a few lots with homes for sale here.
