aikido and spondylosis

hi everybody! i was diagnosed last month by my doctor that i have spondylosis. this is a degenerative disease that affects your cervical spine and if you got it worse will affect your bicep and deltoids. anyways, i just want to know from any of our doctor aikidokas if it is safe for me to practice aikido. i can still lift a bokken and i can still do any techniques but the problem is my neck becomes stiff and it really bothers me during my work at the office, that is working in front of the computer. can any of you guys help me solve this delibitating disease that i have right now. western medicine has no solution for my problem,but will alternative medicine help? thanks in advance for your help and comments. domo arrigato!
