visit with adult neuro today

[Guest guest]

I saw the adult neuro today, he took the time to explain the MRI to me and my

husband. He didn't see anything wrong with the structure of my spine and

believes I have a tethered cord right above where my scar is. He wants me to go

for a " bending " x-ray and CAT scan to rule out anything else that could be

compressing my cord. He will also speak with the pediatric neuro to discuss his

findings. He said I don't have the " classic " tsc symptoms, but it is very

evident from the muscle wasting in my calf and my ankle weakness that something

is definately compressing my cord and if it's not in the structure then it has

to be tethered.
