X JAPANﾂ YOSHIKIﾂ、In LA for a cervical foraminal stenosis operation
At the end of last month, seems that Yoshiki underwent surgery for some neck problems he's been having. This is the information taken from X JAPAN's official myspace.
Drummer, pianist and X JAPAN band leader, Yoshiki, will undergo neck surgery on Monday, July 27, 2009 at the Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Beverly Hills, CA. Dr. Neel Anand, Director of the Cedars-Sinai Spine Center, will perform a cervical foraminotomy.
Due to his intense drumming style, Yoshiki developed a worsening of his neck pain and left hand numbness over the past month, affecting his music performance. His condition has been evaluated by doctors in the U.S. and Japan. Yoshiki underwent a spinal x-ray series, an MRI of the spine, and an EMG. After seeking second and third opinions on the diagnosis and treatment, he concluded that the foraminotomy was necessary for the cervical foraminal stenosis.
Yoshiki's primary physician at the Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Dr. Tommy H. Tomizawa (UCLA Assistant Professor), states that he will need a few weeks to recover from the surgery and a month or more of rehabilitation. If his condition does not improve over the next several months, laminectomy, discectomy and spinal fusion would be considered. Artificial disc placement would be another treatment of choice.

Omggggggggg ...poor Yoshiki samaaaaaaaaaa....I hope he can get well soon... ;________;
YOSHIKI, recovering from back surgery, reveals fans will benefit in his will
Tuesday 25th August, 03:29 AM JST
MIE —
Drummer, pianist and founder of popular rock group X Japan, YOSHIKI, 43, flew in by helicopter to watch his "Team Yoshiki & Dome Project" car in the Super GT Series race at Suzuka Circuit on Sunday.
YOSHIKI was wearing a neck brace and had his left arm in plaster, following surgery in late July in the U.S. on a slipped disc in his spine. He revealed that he would have to get the disc replaced within the next three years, and that if nerve damage in his arm did not heal in the next two years, then it would be permanent. He said doctors cautioned him on his drumming practice which will resume next month, telling him not to raise his arms too high, not to twist his body left and right, and not to use anything heavier than one kilogram.
Still, YOSHIKI was upbeat, saying the difficulties he faces now are nothing compared to when the band split up in 1997 or when guitarist HIDE was found hanged in his apartment the following year.
He spoke of his involvement with live video website Ustream.tv, and said he hopes to put out a best-of album before the end of the year, which will include some new songs he is working on now.
After watching his team car come in fourth, YOSHIKI then went to Ise Shrine , also in Mie Prefecture , and prayed for a recovery in his health. YOSHIKI also revealed that he has prepared his will given the risks involved with his spinal injuries, and that nearly one quarter of his assets will be used for the benefit of his long-term fans.
Calm down Yoshiki, it's just back surgery, you're not dying, no need to talk about wills and such.
Blaquetopaz, thanks so much for the update on Yoshiki. I've been so worried about how he was doing and couldn't find any info anywhere. And, Yurga, thanks for the great pictures. He's looking really good, except in the last picture. Looks like he's really hurting there. Poor baby.

arigato for the updates and the photos. this is kind of off topic but beatz uk magazine is going to have an interview with Toshi in their first issue. the url is Beatz Uk magazine (beatzukmagazine) on Myspace
You know, I always dreamed of wearing a big, white wedding dress on my big day, but if i was lucky enough to actually marry Yoshiki, i'll glady step aside and wear a suit.
LOL - Rose as Yoshiki's son???
What a riddiculous idea ha ha ha~~
Latest news - Yoshiki told that in the begining of 2010 years X will began
their tour again. Hmz....i really hope they will,
coz now Toshi is suffering from intercostal neurolagya (or what that thing is named)
and even in his concerts Masaya are singing instead of Toshi....
A huge buzz is going on all over the place!
At the red carpet event for the Grammy Awards YOSHIKI mentioned X Japan will
be performing at Lollapalooza 2010 this summer.
Anwayz, look there:
"People thought that X Japan has three male members and two females"~~
Aka Yoshiki and Hide "females members"~~~
