[RC] cervical stenosis and riding - maryAfter getting my
lumbar stenosis fixed I now find out I have severe cervical stenosis in the 4-5
from both the front and back. In 1999 I had it in c5-6 but
that has improved. The neurosurgeon said that since I am not having any
weakness or numbness that he would not suggest surgery but ..... he did warn me
against falling and whiplash. Of course since my husband was there and not
a horse person I did not ask any questions that would result in "no
riding". Does anyone know if he might have been warning me because if I
fell I would need the operation or because I would end up paralyzed? And
is there anything I could do to make this one get better like my old one?
Thanks.
