Me too. I suffer from degenerative discs, bone spurs and arthritis in all of my cervical and thoracic vertebrae. I'm in constant pain and if there was a realistic spinal replacement procedure, I would seriously consider it.

I don't know what caused my problems, but arthritis and bonr spurs definitely run in my family and 3 decades of poor posture haven't helped and ive had too numerous bicycle falls and car crashes over the years to even count (I was in a car accident just last week! Not my fault).
