I had a three level ACDF c-4-c7 5/24/2012,I felt something
was wrong and my neurosurgion poopooed me .I had more
epidurals suferred migrains then in June 2013 my Doc
finally had CT done and found a broken titanium screw c-7
,the cadaver bone had not incorporated with my own bone,I
found this out the day our house sold in LA and was told by
my surgeon that I would have to pay for movers as I could
not lift more than 20lbs.I now live in AZ went to several
doctors(many who said "we don't do litigations"? I was sent
to ENT and found that my rt vocal chord had been paralized
during surgery.I faound a neurosurgeon who said that I had
NOT fused,the hardware was breaking down and on 6/18/2014 I
had a posterior fusion to stabilize my neck was in neck
brace 4 months,I am still in physical therapy,have not been
able to work and have yet to recieve any social security
compansation! Last year our out of pocket expenses were
astronomical,my marriage came very close to ending as a
direct result of the problems associated with this
situation. HOW DOES TITANIUM BREAK?? I have it in my mouth
and that is fine and stable?? Please help me!!!
