Guest guest Posted March 11, 2000 Report Share Posted March 11, 2000 Just spoke to Tracey Gibson who is in the hospital for a shunt revision. This shunt is for her syrinx. She just recently had the shunt revised but it wasn't working. They went in yesterday and of all things - they couldn't find it. It had obviously worked itself out and is just somewhere in her body now. They don't expect it to cause any problems. She will hopefully have a new shunt inserted on Monday.
