                        Just want to thank everyone here (lauras and phillip esp) for sharing your experiences!  I just found out a have a very bad herniated cervical disk C7 and may have to have surgery, but I am going to try more physical therapy first, since it helped me in the past.  I hope all of you feel better and thank you so much for taking the time to share your experiences here.
