My Dr ignored the hyperflexia, he even held my leg down so it didn't fly up like it does. When I first went for neck problems they said I needed surgery- I moved and in this state they totally ignored my MRI and symptoms. They blamed it on carpal tunnel. Had the carpal tunnel surgery- Failed. The surgeon had a fit when the neurologist said it was a failed carpal tunnel, then they said after surgery you will Always show during an emg you have carpal tunnel. I kept asking to fix my neck---they refused! Come now, surgery is urgent. Myelopathy....JUST as I told them, they failed to monitor it. So mad, but now they HAVE to do it, the delay makes me now have permanent damage. I was so gaslighted, i was near suicide.
I have just been told that I was born with neuropathy and the nerve pain has spread over my whole body starting at the feet and hands then back and chest. And I have cerebral palsy already have balance issues and the neuropathy made it worse. A neurosurgeon's nurse was taking to me about premature aging

My Mother had all of the Above after "Routine" Surgery on her right Knee. I don't what the Hell went on in that Operating room. But she firstly lost the use of her left arm. Then it progressed to her right arm, then her legs, and eventually all her motor functions. And her bladder and back passage functions. Then eventually ended up in her losing even her ability to speak. She was just a "Living Corpse" towards the end of her life. She Passed Away 4 weeks ago. All, for a routine surgery of her right knee.
I have been diagnosed with non compressive cervical myelopathy in C1 and C2 area possibly due to copper deficiency and Ro-N-y gastric bypass I have been having severe neurological problems, and I have lost the ability to walk on my own in about 6 months, my neurologist has never seen anything like this in 30 years of practice and my family doc says the same,I can't find a doctor and my medical team has given up I can travel to anywhere if I could find a doctor.
Thank you very much . Two years ago, I got a bruise in the cervical spinal cord by mistake from the surgeon during the 5-6 vertebra fusion. I had many problems and then my condition improved after physiotherapy and taking some medications and vitamins. My question is: Why did my condition deteriorate to a bad degree after two years? From the injury and it became a lot worse than before, the neck pain, shoulder pain and arms and severe weakness in the hands and feet have returned. Is there a logical explanation, knowing that I had an MRI and there is no new disk..?
You count yourself "Lucky" my Mother had all the above, but ended up a vegetable, unable to move, not even able to speak in the end. I described her as a "Living Corpse" to others. Then she "Passed Away" 4 weeks ago. One Taxi Driver told me, "You wouldn't let an animal suffer like that" End of Story.
Can you have moderate myelopathy without the white spot on the T2 spinal cord image? I have severe arm,hand,leg weakness,loss of balance but my dexterity is not so bad that I can't button a shirt. My last MRI was one year ago where the space for the spinal cord on C5-C6 was 9 mm . Because my EMG was good they diagnosed me with functional neurological disorder.
Do oblique views of the cervical spine add any value to seeing the size of the foramina? Is it possible to get some type of measurement through plain films?

What does Chronic compressive myelomalacia and cord atrophy at the C4-C5 level, unchanged
compared to preoperative studies mean exactly?

Diagnosis came by way of MRI
Thank you very much .

Wondering if those neuropathic symptoms can include random burning sensations throughout body, facial numbness. Thank you.
Do oblique views of the cervical spine add any value to seeing the size of the foramina? Is it possible to get some type of measurement through plain films?
Oblique views of the cervical spine can definitely show different bony structures, but MR imaging is the standard when myelopathy is a concern
C2 to C7 spine cervical myelopathy
After operation I have no improve
Me too
Surgery is not done to improve your myelopathy it’s to slow down the progression
All this is so devastating.😔
completely@@nomudnolotusnodragonnogold
My Dad was told this but also told that any improvement would be a bonus so I can only assume that it is possible.@@mollisworldwithmuralsbymol6977
