Is weight training safe with moderate to severe cervical stenosis with 3 herniated discs or will it make it worse? 54 yrs old have worked out with weights my entire adult life. i don't want to stop unless i have too. thanks.

Best: To answer your question would be the doc that is following your changes and based on actual details. Otherwise, weight training would not be recommended if having 3 herniated discs as it can worsen your condition. A physical therapist may help in better designing workouts that will not worsen preexisting conditions.
