Thumbs up Thankyou Mark!

Just to say my appointment with the neurologist today seems to confirm Mark's suspicions about cervical problems.
Neurologist is pretty sure that the forward slippage of C3 from C4 has caused "cervical canal stenosis" and is arranging MRI and other tests pronto.
Says my walking problems and bowel probs are very likely being caused by spinal compression high up and was amazed that I've never had an MRI scan considering how long these problems have existed.
Par for the course on this side of the pond I'm afraid.
Never mind, am finally on the path to getting something done, just hope it's not too late.
Once again, thankyou Mark for alerting me to this. I hope Diane's still making good progress too.
Be in touch
Lynette
