I had a fusion of C4-C6 in December 2005. I was off the bike for a good six months. The hand/wrist/arm numbness took awhile to abate. My neck was pretty messed up, though. He took bone from my hip for the fusion & that made recovery better. Will you be fused?
Do your physical therapy religiously.
Stay off the bike until they tell you it's OK. I tried to ride with my cervical collar on. The vibrations through my arms to my neck were awful. BUT, cars REALLY gave me a wide berth!![]()

Snap, I hope you're wearing a cervical collar. In my case, the MRI didn't show the full extent of the damage. A vertebra was pushing into my spinal cord. A cervical collar will limit your neck motion.
