Am waiting now for a consultation with a neurosurgeon.
Am not encouraged today by reading the remarks made by the neurologist in a letter to my GP.
Opening line - quote.... "Mrs **** continues to complain of 'wobbly legs' "
Sounds a little demeaning to me but what do I know?
It's a contradictory letter, makes mention of discal bars at C4/5 C5/6 and
C6/7 and there being no CSF space around the cord at 2 levels.
Blah blah blah... last sentence....quote - "Mrs **** would like to see a surgeon because she is very concerned about the minor disc disease but I do not think that surgery is warranted".
Well I can think of better things to do than have neurosurgery but on the other hand I don't like losing my mobility.
Bearing in mind my referral to the neurosurgeon will be headed up by a letter from this guy I'm very worried.
Thank goodness my GP is on my side and has written to the neurosurgeon stressing the problems I'm having.
Am dreading it all.
If I was wealthy I'd have gone to Munich by now but no chance, just have to keep my eye on the ball and ask all the right questions as Mark has advised me!
Thankyou Mark!
