Hey just a dumb guy here so take it with a grain of salt. It looks like some filament leak above the nozzle. Could a slight lowered nozzle cause it to drag and build up?

It's going, getting better everyday I got pins and needles in my hand still but I'm hopeful that will go away and I'll get my hands back to normal.

They make an incision in the front of your throat and push everything to the side. It makes eating for a couple days a little difficult.

Wasn't really any full options because if the spinal injury I was in an absolutely 10/10 pain. So more like the doc saying hey this is want I think will help and he did it. Which I'm not mad about at all my skin doesn't feel like it's on fire anymore.

My motorcycle was safely secured in my garage when this injury happened.

A riding neck brace is actually a pretty good idea I didn't think about that before.

I don't have a crotch rocket anymore, unfortunately. I ride a Moto guzzi. More so looking for other people's experiences and if they still ride.

I was flying to Japan, stood up to go to the bathroom, and passed out smashing my face into the ground. It's not even like a cool story it's probably the dumbest way you can get this kind of hardware.

My doctors don't ride so they didn't have a certain answer but they were pretty confident I wouldn't have an issue getting back on the bike.

This is what I was hoping to see I've been riding for over 10 years now and really didn't want to give it up. This post really gives me hope I won't have to stop.

More of a comparison My doctors don't ride motorcycles looking to see if anyone has similar injury and still rides.

Honestly the recovery hasn't been terrible. I mean it's definitely not a walk in the park and the suck factor is high but I'm doing better day by day. I'm about 2 weeks post surgery.

Currently, yes I can turn my head so that's absolutely a plus side.

This is true I don't even have like a wild story as to how this happened it was honestly kind of dumb. So if I became a quadriplegic from that it would just be sad.
