Hi Dr.Corenman,
Sorry to bother you, but I was reading over all the post I’ve posted on the forum, and came across the post you wrote that” The Global level of C4-5 is Moderately Unstable.Again, This is Disc, Ligaments, and Facets that cause this Translation.The Ligaments are damaged at C4-5 and the Facets being Incompetent at C4-5.”Dr. Corenman it got me to start thinking and I was wondering if the IDR is at my C4-5 level yet and if it is how bad is it?why I’m asking is Because the two chiropractors I seen told me I had a lot of degeneration
at my C4-5 and C5-6 level !! Please give me your opinionI know you told me in the post above, that if I developed IDR at my C4-5, that would be good as IDR reduces motion and ” Stabilize” C4-5 level.
So Dr.Corenman I take it that the C4-5 is going to remain ” Moderately Unstable” until I developed IDR at C4-5 or Consider surgery ?
” Dr. Corenman , Am I Correct” Please give me your opinion
Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to answer my questions for me I really appreciate it .

Thank You again for answering my questions for me !! Hope you and your family have a Blessed Thanksgivingin reply to: flexion & extension x-ray of 2017 #26892Hi Dr. Corenman,
I read the article about the IDR and was wondering if it’s at my C4-5 level as bad as it’s at my C5-6 level and if it is would it help to stabilize the C4-5 level, because of the Mild to moderate Instability I have at that level ?. Please give me your opinionDr.Corenman the Spine Doctor I seen for a second opinion told me that the only way to stabilize the C4-5 level, because of the Mild to Moderate Instability I have so I won’t be unstable any more is to have an Anterior Discectomy and fusion at C4-5 level ?. He told me if I don’t have surgery I’M going to have Mild to Moderate Instability for the rest of my life and be unstable at C4-5 level, and have to be careful what I do.
Dr.Corenman do you agree with my Doctor ? Please give me your opinionThank You again for taking time out of your busy schedule to answer my questions for me. You’re a great Doctor !!

Thank You for taking the time out of your busy schedule to answer my questions for me. I wish I lived closer to your office so I could make an appointment to see you.Dr. Corenman what you said in the last post above, when you said that “maybe you do have an Auto fusion at C5-6 but that condition is Unusual so I would not assume that is a fact at this point”.
What else could it be ?? What did you see when you viewed my X-RAYS at C5-6 level ? Your opinion please
Dr. Corenman when you said that the C5-6 level is probably stable it makes me feel a little wary.Could you please view my X-RAYS again and assure me that it’s not unstable like C4 level.
Thank You again !! Have a great weekend
in reply to: flexion & extension x-ray of 2017 #26835Hi Dr. Corenman,
First Thank You for answering my questions for me,I really appreciate it!!I have a few more questions ?
What does he mean when he said the Head weighs approximately 12 to 15 pounds which contributes to this problem ?
Dr. Corenman maybe the Doctor meant that I have an Auto fusion at C5-6 level, like the first Doctor I seen also said I have ?
Dr.Corenman in your opinion from viewing my X-RAYS is my C5-6 level stable or do I have Mild Instability also at this level to ? Or do you think the Adhesions that you said that I have will stabilize the C5-6 level ?
The Chiropractor I saw in the past told me that I had Mild Instability at C5-6 level and Moderate Instability at C4-5 and he would not do any adjustments on me? Do you agree
I guess I will have to be careful what I do for the rest of my life because of this Instability I have, because the Spine Doctor who took care of me in 1988 when I injured my neck told me that I Will have Mild to Moderate Instability at C4-5 and C5-6 level for the rest of my life, I guess he was Right.
Thank You again for explaining everything to me I really appreciate it!! You’re a great Doctor with a compassion for helping people by giving great advice.
