a few yrs back i herniated 2 discs in my upper cervical spine grappling. i went to doctors, did the physical therapy & got better.
last week i grappled wednesday nite, no big deal, no pain, normal shit. woke up ay 1am in intense pain. feels like the same shit. went to doctor(s) and have MRI pending and appt's w/specialists.
any feedback from people who have experienced the same would be appreciated.

Good luck! I am suffering now with a neck problem.
Travis, Jimmy Pedro a 4 time Olympian had a bulging disc at c5 c6 and c6 c7, did not have surgury and returned after a year to win 2 Olympic Medals. He told me once he got back to 100% he never reinjured it and if you watch some of his matches if he didnt injure it doing Judo, I am sure you could survive BJJ without reinjury.
