[|Human|] I have had several very bad reactions to medicines including anaphalaxis. I had a bad experience when i had the marina put in, my body went into shock and it actually dislodged itself less than 24hrs after. The other day i had ear acupunture to try and help with neck pain and again my body rashed, heated and i was very faint. My question is that i am on the wait list for titanium peek cage surgery in my neck and my mind is telling me not to do it with the fear or a reaction or rejection to the titanium because of my previous problems. I am so very scared to go ahead with this because of the small but possible reaction to anything being implanted given my history. I am thinking i would be better to be in pain than take the risk? I would be grateful f your opinion or advise Thank you
[|AI|]  Hi, thank you for providing the brief history of you. A thorough neuromuscular assessment is advised. As the pain in the neck is due to the change in the normal anatomy and physiology. I will request you to visit a physical therapist as he will help with therapeutic ultrasound therapy and TENS therapy. Also, with the help of exercises the near normal anatomy can be achieved. Besides, neck is a very sensitive area and one needs to be very conscious while taking the decision for the surgery. Only if the pain is unbearable and the upper limb are having loss of motor functions the surgery is recommended. RegardsJay In Chat Doctor.
