I've been dealing with really bad pain in my left arm, shoulder, and wrist, and my doctor mentioned it might be related to mild C5-C6 PID on the left side. I'm starting to think about surgery but I'm not sure what the cost would be or if it's even the right option for me. Can you help me understand what to expect?

My grandfather is 83 and had a fall in the bathroom that caused a blood clot in his brain. The doctors are recommending surgery, but I'm worried can surgery really fix this at his age? Is it safe for him to go through the procedure? Would really appreciate your advice.

Sorry to hear about situation. Age is not the only factor, surgery and outcome depends on his general health, state of his heart function. Please discuss with physician and neurosurgeon.
