REWARD FOR PAIN IN A NECK CURE
Reward for a neck pain cure - From a $1000 as big as it gets.
YES, I am offering a reward from a $1000 to anyone that introduces me to a doctor and/or healer
who can provide a cure to the pain in my neck (Cervicalgia and Radiculopathy)!
Doctor or a healer does NOT have to say: "Yes I can cure it" for you to get the reward,
but the recommended Healer/Doctor must provide convenient evidence of successful treatment cases.
NO, if you yourself call to arrange a therapeutic session, you don't get the reward, but you do get me as a potential patient if you are real Healer/Doctor.
In that case I'll donate it to the people who provice a health care and cure to the ordinary people as being the most important job in the world.
I realize that the vast majority of people reading this won't be agree with me. That's why I'm offering the reward. Trust me, if you do you will have given me greatest gift anyone could have given me. I can assure you that you will receive the reward.
Just imagine having a Devil Turned Termite SAINTE-BEUVE in your neck, whose principle rule is to put an end to all normal human activities.
This is the dark, blackened reality of my Neck Pain Torment.
Known during humanity development as "Pain in the neck".

Dear Visitor,
My problem is I have a Severe Neck Pain, right shoulder and arm problem for several years.
Just a non stop torment, that progressively is affecting all the rest of the body functionality.
Here is the general description:
- Dislocated Herniated neck disc at C3/C4
- Dislocated Herniated neck disc at C5/C6
- Right shoulder severe pain
- Right arm pain
- Severe depression
- Chronic insomnia
- Right site of the body chronic shingles
- Back pain, left leg pain and occasional left foot pain.

What is a herniated disc?
X-RAY of of Lumbar Spine - Clinically indicated by Dr A.D. Filber from Mayne Health Diagnostic Imaging Melbourne Australia:
- Vertebral body alignment demostrates mild (what is mild) loss of the lumbar lordosis with the back held in an alomst erect position.
- A minor (what is minor) L3/L4 spondylitic changes.
CT Scan of Lumbar Spine - Clinically indicated by Dr D. Saddik from Mayne Health Diagnostic Imaging Melbourne Australia:
- Mild (what is mild) disc space height reduction at L3/L4 and minimal broad based disc bulge.
- Mild (what is mild) disc space height reduction at L4/L5 An asymmetric left sided broad based disc bulge was identified. No definite neural impingment.
- An
- Mild (what is mild) disc space height reduction at L3/L4
I have been to several doctors, experts and professional people in Melbourne Australia (the reference list is coming up. ) But they haven't done anything to help me. It has cost me a lot of money and time. And the problem gets worse. I am in desperate situation if I have to suffer any more pain I might as well be dead.
I am 49 years old and I want to ask you - Can you please help me to find a doctor or a healer. If you can't I don't want to go on any more. Day in day out, no relief, but torture. "Please". I am sick of being ripped off and discriminated by the public health system.
This is it for now.
Will I have irreversible damage if I delay surgery?
Dr. Timothy C. Ryken
Iowa City, IA
While there are situations in which delays in surgery may result in permanent injuries, most of the time patients improve. If you have a neurological condition defined, beyond pain alone, you should be followed closely by your surgeon.
Dr. Randy Davis
Glen Burnie, MD
Although there are a small number of instances where a patient has a progressive paralysis, where delay in surgery can be damaging, it is much more common for the patient to benefit from a period of non-operative treatment since there is frequently a good chance that they will respond without surgery.
Dr. Kevin Yoo
Escondido, CA
It is hard to say if you will have irreversible damage if you delay surgery, but clinical experience shows that the longer your nerves or spinal cord are compressed, the less likely surgery will be successful. For nerves in the cervical spine (the neck), some clinicians report, and I happen to agree, that if you have significant pain, numbness or weakness at 3 months after the symptoms started, then you should seriously consider surgery.
Dr. B. Theo Mellion
Carbondale, IL
It is certainly possible. People who have weakness or significant numbness for a prolonged period of time may not get complete recovery of function. Often there is significant recovery, and pain can resolve completely, but there is certainly a possibility that there could be some permanent loss of function. Although that is the exception rather than the rule, it is a possibility.
Dr. Jeffrey C. Wang
Los Angeles, CA
The more serious conditions where the spinal cord or nerve elements are becoming damaged or already show signs of damage represent a more urgent situation and do require surgery within a reasonable amount of time. For elective conditions where the main symptoms do not involve signs of neurologic damage, but mainly significant pain, most likely will not result in irreversible damage if surgery is delayed. A great deal depends on the actual diagnosis and the root of the problem.
Dr. Allan Levi
Miami, FL
Irreversible damage to the spinal cord and to nerves can occur with prolonged compression.
Dr. Daniel Resnick
Madison, WI
In general, a delay of several weeks or even months does not influence ultimate outcome. If significant weakness does exist however I would recommend surgery earlier rather than later. If the problem is primarily pain or numbness which is not especially bothersome then there is no harm in waiting for a period of weeks or even months to try and avoid surgery.
Dr. Sean Salehi
Chicago, IL
If the compression is on the spinal cord, then a delay in surgery can cause significant damage. Compression on a nerve root emanating from the spinal cord is less of an issue, and a conservative treatment is recommended prior to a surgical decompression.
Dr. Jeffrey Goldstein
New York, NY
It's certainly possible. People who have weakness or significant numbness for a prolonged period of time may not get complete recovery of function with or without surgery. Often there is significant recovery and pain can resolve completely but there is certainly a possibility that there could be some permanent loss of function. That is certainly the exception rather than the rule but it is a possibility.
Dr. Joseph Alexander
Winston-Salem, NC
If pressure on a nerve or the spinal cord lasts for a long period of time, it is possible that the changes in the nerve or spinal cord can become permanent. This would generally be the case in someone who had significant weakness or clumsiness as symptoms of their spinal degeneration. For patients who primarily have neck region pain, there is probably little chance of permanent damage if surgery is delayed, as long as their problem is related to simple degeneration. Of course, patients with cancer, infections, fractures, or instability involving the spine may need much more urgent attention.
Dr. W. Christopher Urban
Glen Burnie, MD
Most often, a period of non-operative therapy is recommended prior to considering surgery. A majority a patients experience relief of their symptoms after a few weeks and can avoid surgery. However, when the spinal cord is severely compressed, the pressure on the nerves may cause irreversible damage. I sometimes use the analogy of a heavy brick placed on top of a garden hose causing it to be compressed. If the brick is removed after a few hours or days, it is unlikely to cause permanent kinking of the hose. However, if the brick is left on the hose for several months, the hose may never regain its original shape after the brick is finally removed. In cases of myelopathy or severe radiculopathy, where there is significant spinal cord or root compression, delaying surgery may cause irreversible damage.
Dr. Rick Sasso
Indianapolis, IN
That's a very good question. Most of the time people do not have a significant neurologic deficit. They don't have significant weakness or numbness and tingling, and so then it's basically a lifestyle issue: whether you can do your activities that you want to do or need to do, your hobbies, and your job. On the other hand, if a significant neurologic deficit is present, either spinal cord changes or nerve changes, and they are progressive, basically they are getting worse, that's when we get more concerned, and taking pressure off the neural structures is important. The problem is, if we wait too long, there is very, very good data to show that if you press on a nerve and that nerve is pressed on for a long period of time, that we have less of a chance of having return of function to that nerve after we take the pressure off the nerve.
Dr. Kambiz Hannani
Los Angeles, CA
If there is direct pressure on the spinal cord and you are experiencing progressive weakness or bowel and bladder problems, irreversible damage may occur. In these cases, surgery needs to be performed, depending on the extent of the cord compression.
Dr. Theodore A. Belanger
Charlotte, NC
There are some specific situations where this is true, such as in the case of spinal cord compression and worsening paralysis, but, in most cases, delaying surgery will not cause a worse final outcome.
Dr. David S. Baskin
Houston, TX
This also depends on the exact anatomy of your problem, and is an important question to ask your doctor. This risk does exist when there is nerve pressure present and you have a neurological deficit.
Dr. Brian Subach
Atlanta, GA
In general, the longer nerve compression or spinal cord compression exists, the less likely the chance of a complete recovery.
Dr. Mark R. McLaughlin
Princeton, NJ
Waiting a few weeks or even 1-3 months to have surgery should not cause any irreversible damage unless there is progressive worsening during the observation period. If during the waiting period, you begin to experience worsening arm, leg, or bowel/bladder dysfunction, you should have a re-evaluation immediately.
Dr. Moe R. Lim
Chapel Hill, NC
In certain serious conditions such as when the spinal cord is becoming damaged, delaying surgery too long can lead to irreversible damage.
Dr. Sebastian Lattuga
Rockville Centre, NY
In general, cervical disc disease does not cause irreversible nerve damage. However in the rare instances where patients are developing worsening neurological injury, then early surgery is recommended.
Dr. Mark Testaiuti
Haddonfield, NJ
It depends on how badly the nerve(s) is pinched. If profound weakness is present there may be more irreversible injury. Some muscles in the arm are more dependent on a single nerve than others, i.e., C5. Also, if the spinal cord is being pushed on and there are exam findings showing this is occurring, this may be stopped by surgery but not always reversed.

SUGGESTIONS FOR UNFORTUNATE NECK AND ARM PAIN
Neck pain and arm pain definitions.
The word cervicalgia is Latin for neck pain. Neck pain sometimes occurs with arm pain. Radiculopathy is another name for arm pain. Radiculopathy is Latin word for a damaged nerve root. It also implies pain. The pain usually follows the distribution of the nerve. The distinction between neck pain and arm pain is important. Neck pain is usually due to a bad disc but "arm pain is usually caused by a pinched nerve." The two can occur together when the damaged disc compresses one of the nerves. Fixing the damaged disc with usually cure both problems.
