I'm scheduled for spine fusion in the vertebrae in my neck. Will I be able to turn my neck after surgery?

As long as the fusion isn't between the two joints at the top of the spine, you shouldn't have too many problems. Those two joints control about half of the movement of turning your head. A fusion in the lower part of your neck doesn't dramatically affect your ability to turn your head.
