Testing Neurological Muscles: Results

[RainCat]

Saw the new neuro muscular specialist last week ...my original neuro referred me. Anyway nuro tests questions and answers routine etc were all carried out. Seems the only change since my last tests were that ive lost my deep deep tendon reflexes of my right ankle, however it seems to me to be performing ok, i also have a couple of brisk ones but i'm not sure which. He did some new bloods CK and electrolytes? Hes says he thinks ive got 3 ongoing problems i'm definately PNHE Bad lumbar stenosis /sacral issues the 3rd problem he said would have to wait pending the bloods I'm beggining to feel like this song

Raindog,Before you lose all your wheels and are on a sled you may want to ask your doc 'how common are these conditions at the level which you have?' I have 'this and that' also with my spine but when questioned 2 doctors admitted that these conditions, to some extent, are normal and pervasive in the general population after the mid-20s. Few people have perfect spines, most never know they have DDD, stenosis, bone spurs, and partial disc ruptures, and live with them without pain or symptoms. Of course nerve impingement is another story so you need to ask specifically.

Ok, I'm very interested in this now, so please Raindog, when you get those test back, please post about the results, or you can just PM me. Take Care RaindogRobynn )
