So I've been back to work for two days now. I mostly #WFH, so at least I could come back sooner since I'm still not cleared for driving. My periodic onsite work is covered by my awesome coworkers until I get cleared.

By the end of the day today, I started feeling a lump in my throat. I don't feel ill, and I'm not having any issues with breathing or swallowing. I've had it on and off since the #surgery about a week ago, but it's more noticeable now. My wife checked online and pretty much confirmed that a #neckfusion / #cervicalfusion can cause this feeling for up to 6 months.

Does anyone else have experience with this? It's not surprising since a 2-inch incision was made on the front-left side of my neck, and various parts within were shifted to get to the #herniateddisc on the right side of my neck. I assume it's something I just need to ride out, but any advice, if possible, is appreciated. #medical #medicalquestion #medicalhelp
