A member asked:

What has been the experience/results after a cervical myelopathy surgery for the spine?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Generally ok: For this diagnosis, surgery will prevent a progression of the myleopathy but does not mean that whatever neurologic functions that have been affected will recover if at all. Recovery is variable as well if at all ranging from complete resolution of symptoms to no resolution to everything in between. Once diagnosed, it is best to treat it before it progresses based on the unpredictable recovery.
