Morning All.
Heating failed this morning. Working now though.
I can't wait for the Radiologists analysis report on my neck and a pronouncement on their findings.
I am just a layman but my Google Image search skills are ok.
This is a comparison of a good Vs. Bad cervical spine with cord damage.
And here's my spinal cord (same view). Which category does this fall into I wonder?
Report is due on Wednesday.
Have a great day!

It's clear to me that it isn't "good" Brian, but exactly how "bad" it might be I have to leave to the experts at deciphering the images I think.I reckon you are up the creek minus a paddle
We are where we are, there's no point me getting too despondent about it. It might explain the sudden dramatic drop-off in my physical strength directly after the heavy labour I did in 2021.
Something certainly got shifted. Whether it is reversible, remains to be seen.

Yes Dan, you must remain positive! When I was in the hospital and then in the wheelchair I always tried to think positive. It is not easy and there were dark moments. I have just found out my latest issues are due to an interaction with my BP meds and the injections I have. I truly hope they can sort you out.It's clear to me that it isn't "good" Brian, but exactly how "bad" it might be I have to leave to the experts at deciphering the images I think.

Hmmm, you can see pinch points there can't you. I guess that's the issue?

Yeah @Turktowner , it certainly looks like there's compression on the spinal column in several places.
What each little pinch-point is causing I don't know and I bet its minor compared to some poor other folks.
When you look toward the lower end and T1 you can see its all smooth sailing and evenly covered in the sheath.
I don't fancy surgery TBH.

Re any op, do you have the option of gamma-knife or some form of radio therapy?

Looks like you have 7 protusionsfrom discs into the sheath around the nerve mass, some worse than others but none as bad as the ones in the dodgy one above.Morning All.

Second that.
We thought W was going to be permanently in a wheelchair until they stuck the titanium cage in.

So this morning was spent getting, up having brekker then going to Poole hostible for a blood test.
Flipping traffic, road works and an hour's wait in the blood place.
Why?
Kidney function in case they have to inject a dye?
For a colonoscopy?
Beats me!
Enjoy the rest of the day folks!
