As I said in the past I had major neck and back surgery
I had a seven level lamenotectomy and cervical, thoracic instrumental spinal fusion
C3,C4,C5, C6,C7,T1 and T2.
Lately I have been having problems with my legs so I had a lumbar and sacral M.R.I which wasn't severe enough for surgery but the neurosurgeon said my legs getting bad because the titanium is damaging T3 and she thinks I need reconstructive surgery which us causing my kegs to lick out and not bend while walking.i asked her am I going to lose my legs like I did my hands and she said mist likely you will eventually not be able to walk again and be in a wheelchair permanently unless I do this rely dangerous surgery.
Which is more likely than not I will be paralyzed .
I'm really at the point that I don't know what to do ,she told me thus surgery is out of her expertise and noone she suggests will take my insurance.
I'm going to need another cat scan and another cervical,thoracic MRI before we even go further but she warned me about this.
I reAlly thought it was my lower back cause my i have existing damage there.
She said shes almost positive that the titanium is crushing T3 pushing it Foward and she will look at the new films and decide then and tgat I'm right if I wait too long I will have no use of my kegs at all.
I can't imagine going through. A more intensive surgery then the lAst time which I was hospitalized for over 2 months and took me 5 years being home bound to
Recover .i gave to to another catscan and a another cervical thoracic MRI .
It it doesn't look good and she said I have a right to be worried cause if you wait I will lose my legs and if I. An find. Doctor to cover me this surgery is really dangerous compared to my last which was huge .theres more chance than likely I will be paralyzed from the surgery itself but IF I don't do the surgery i
Will most likely be in a wheelchair anyway
On a side not my blood pressure was 117 I've 77,surprisinglyoo
I'm not sure what to do, I didn't think it would be this bad.all I can do is get another cervical MRI and another catscan
Wish me luck , I need it
