I've spent the last couple months looking for experiences similiar to mine and all I've found were questions. Given that fact I figured I'd post a log of my adventures here.
I haven't touched a weight or anything since October. That includes my HRT dose. I probably should've stayed on that, but I didn't. I was about 250 at about 8% when I was forced to stop. The day of my surgery 1/15/14, I was 228. I hadn't had anything to eat of drink in 10 hours. I had substantial strength loss and nerve damage in my right arm and horrible headaches and neck pains along with debilitating muscle spasms as a result of a car accident in early 2013.
I had a Multi level discectomy and cervical fusion. They took out a couple ruptured disks and put in spacers which bolted into the vertebra.
Today is 5 days post op and I feel great. Been off pain pills for 2 days and have no pain. Still stiff and some weird twitching, but I have total relief. I have an X-ray on 2/7 to check the status on the fusion. I hope for good news and to be allowed to get back in the gym with light weights.
I started back on HRT yesterday and I'll probably stay with that for a while. As soon as I'm allowed back in the gym I'm going to start some MC IGF as well as a few of the products from the Human Evolution. I'll keep this updated as I can. I have some other things I'll be involved in. Silk and I will be moving and I will be looking for a new career path. Any questions feel free
I'm good!! My Dr said everything looked great and I could start back in the gym within reason. The only thing he said is no overhead stuff. I'm allowed to go back to work in 2 weeks, but that will be temporary until the lawsuit settles. It will be nice to get back on a routine

Awesome news bro. BTW you're 238 cause you're fat.
Did quads / hams / calves yesterday and had a great workout. Kept it light, but intense. I did chest and abs today and had another great workout. I'm feeling awesome in general. I've lost very little strength. Man do I have some crazy motivation!! My diet has been outstanding and I'm killing the cardio as well.
I have a 2 hour deep tissue massage that is going to be hell tomorrow. It's badly needed though. I have no doubt that I will reach my absolute best within 6 - 8 months
Wow man..that's scary surgery. I know a few that have had it done. A friend of mine was an ultimate fighter ( as it was just starting to blow up ). He had to have that neck surgery u had..ended his career also. Sux!! My mom had it also. Her fusion went perfectly. 2 years later, was out boating with her boyfriend and the water got ruff. He came down hard on top of a wave and it blew her fusion up. She had to have a second surgery to fix some of the damage. Be careful in the future bro. Always make your fusion the determining factor before you do anything. I hope all is going well for your recovery brother!!
You say you have to switch careers. If you don't mind me asking, what was prev career and have you figured out what you're gonna do next?
I'm doing great and feel amazing. I'm very strong, but I'm keeping things like shrugs and rows lighter and strict. I've definately put on substantial size. I had 3 light meals before training today and even after my 30 minutes of cardio I was 246lbs. Abs are good, but they almost always are. I can definately tell there is a ton less love handle fat. I'm making great progress quick
