Hello. I have been through your question and understand your concern.

The MRI report reports what is known as degenerative disc disease. This is just aging of your cervical spine and not always needing any treatment. Still, you should see a neurosurgeon to be sure there is no related neuropathy.

hope this helps

Wish you the best health
