Many options: There's always more medicines that you haven't tried; pain psychology techniques like biofeedback, CBT, and mindfulness meditation; electrical stimulators; additional surgeries...don't lose hope!

Laminectomy/Fusion?: 58 year old lady with cervical spinal stenosis with associated nerve root irritation and radiculopathy that has failed conservative treatment. Please see a spine surgeon. It sounds like you may need some new imaging to determine the space occupied by your cord and any osteophytes that may be causing your radicular symptoms. You also need a full exam to determine your function and proper next steps
