Guest guest Posted May 26, 2012 Report Share Posted May 26, 2012 Hi All, Been having problems with my neck and right arm. My PCP ordered an MRI and found that I have 5 herniated disks (C3 thru C7). I haven't done anything to cause this because I haven't really done anything since my detether last year. Does anyone know if this is part of the whole TSC syndrome? I am being referred to a neurosurgeon, but like I've said before, none of the doctors in my city know anything about TSC. They freely admit this. Thanks, Kellie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 26, 2012 Report Share Posted May 26, 2012 Not that much !! Only between C5 - C6 So only my left arm. It's a sleeping feeling most of the time. Sometimes my wrist feels like it is broken i can't use it then for day's The neuro told me that the pain following the MRI must go trough my thumb ,but i have problem in my little finger. It look like it is hernitated but he isn't sure about it. Because it look different. Do you have a exteme S formed spinal column ? They are afraid to do something because the probleme is the nerve root. After surgery it will go his own way so you need a new surgery whitin 2 years. The will wait till a can't use my left arm anymore. Hope you can understand a little what a wrote. It's very diffecult to explain Ask him if Lordososis can be the problem ore something look a like. I do not have it that extreme bus my spine has a " S " form.
