Mri

[dsj123]

I had a mri on my neck because my little finer and ring finger has gone numb the doc said it could be a trapped nerve any way doc rang me and said i had slipped disk at c5 he said i don't think they will go strait on and operate he asked when i had to go and see neurologist told him the next day he said they will tell you more , went to see neurologist and he said everything was fine just a bit of fluid around the spine .i am getting told 2 different things

Oh dear,lack of communication there! However the Neurologist would be the top guy I imagen,& would give the final go ahead.

Go back & ask the Doc. To explain xx

I had a disc slip. and fluid around the spinal cord. I panicked, but after having the operation to fuse together 3 vertebrae in my neck ( bone taken from hip bone ) I was really glad that I went ahead with it. As soon as I woke up from the operation I was pain free and I have never had a problem since, my neck still moves just the same as it always did, there are zero restrictive movements, my arms still go above my head, in fact apart from a couple of small faded scars on my neck and hip there is nothing to say I had it done.

The point is, either way if you get the right diagnosis and they do decide to operate don't panic, things will be OK !!

Typical, that's about right. ask them both if you can see your report and for them to explain the diagnosis.
