question: I am 3 month from surgery on my neck/spine. It was my 3rd surgery and I now have hardware from C-2 to C 5 installed through the front. I have C 5 to C 7 from the back. Starting with my left arm about a month back and now both arms have severe pain and numbness. It is really bad when I try to sleep or rest I wake up every few minutes in pain and have to get out of bed. My left arm locks up at the elbow. The pain is very severe. My hands go numb throughout the day. My neck does hurt please help any feedback is appreciated
