Re: post decompression pain

[Guest guest]

Have you told your nsg of your symptoms?

Kari had a cyst form on across (not attached but over it) this would

not let her duragraph expand and by 6mths it began reherniating the

tonsils. She could not feel a bump or anything either, but she knew by

the return of pain, head pressure and nuero-stuff that something was

going on.

Due to her return of symptoms....Rosner finally ordered another MRI

& this thing showed up as a bright white spot...that shouldn't have

been there.

He told us how rare this is, in fact he has never had one appear on

any of his patients -b/4 or since - Kari's...but he said they can

form due to the body's response to a foreign body like... stitches.

He did a 2nd surgery to remove it 10 wks ago & did more

laminectomies, 16 of her 18 FMS trigger pts are dissapating.

Hope this helps
