A member asked:
Had a cervical operation c3- c7 laminectomy and fusion and titanium feel light headed plus extreme heart burn could this be caused by operation?

Possibly: Such a major operation puts stress on the entire body. I would recommend that you bring this to the attention of your surgeon. You may want to start an antacid such as famotidine.

No: Your surgery would cause the symptoms that you describe. You should follow up with your primary care physician for further evaluation.
