Tashlyn medical issues
My right hand and arm are numb also because of
spinal
cord injury. I've had two cervical
fusion
surgery 4-7 and 3-4 both anterior and posterior respectively. I'm a retired certified medical assistant. On disability retirement from the VA Hospital because my right hand cannot feel the mouse buttons.

Tinnitus/Ginkgo biloba
Visited otorinolarilogos (ear nose and throat specialist) to check my ears and ask about my tinnitus. Ears were clean and uninfected - my hearing levels were a little below average. Anyway he has prescribed Lamberts ginkgo biloba 6000 to take for at least 6 months. Anyone tried this? I'm a bit concerned

Good voice recognition software is a helpful tool!
I am writing this post with my voice. It feels liberating to do so. One of the areas which Parkinson's disease affects the most is my right hand and my right arm. I am right-handed, so this is a significant handicap. Like many of you, I suffer from micrographia. I also have a hard time typing with

TKR April 2018 stiffness and sore at 7 months out.
I suspect my spine is the culprit as Ive have
spinal
fusion
at L3-L5 and C7. I have severe stenosis and bulging discs and a frozen SI joint, which tilts my pelvic on one side, creating the illution of a short and long leg.

Back pain and complications after surgery
Hi everyone I'm finding lots of useful help on here and it helps to know I'm not alone. I've had lower back problems for 5 years now which started after moving a child at school ( I work with autistic children) At first I thought I'd pulled a muscle but it didn't go away and just got worse and worse

Pain clinic
Hi everyone I suffer from Neuropathic leg pain and back pain arising from a operation I had to repair a bulging disc. I was told that I could have a spinal cord stimulator after going to pain clinic. My question is what do you say to them? As I went to the assessment with my wife who was told she could

Do you have double vision?
Have monocular doplia aka double vision in one eye. Doctor wants to inject botox into my eye which he says may fix the problem. Anyone have this done or know of someone who did this? Need to know some information about this unknown procedure.

Botox for double vision?
Went to eye specialist for my double vision. He wants to inject Botox into my eye. He says it should improve in a few months. I've never heard of putting Botox into an eye. I would hope that others reply to this so we all will know what we should, or should not do for double vision which could become

Unexpected elevated and erratic blood pressure
Last year I had
spinal
fusion
surgery so not able to do cardiovascular workouts any more but I doubt that this would make such a significant increase in BP. I am wondering whether my thyroid function is playing up and would appreciate some advice.

Lisuride (Dopergin)
Lisuride, sold under the brand names Dopergin, Proclacam, and Revanil, is an antiparkinson agent of the iso-ergoline class, chemically related to the dopaminergic ergoline Parkinson's drugs. Currently it is not available in the US I could not find any single post mentioning this medicine. Was wondering

Micrographia therapy
I have recently had flu and pd symptoms have progressed at a jump especially micrographia, small and in my case very sloooooow writing. Googled for appropriate therapy / exercises to help and found several references to ‘Pico Tesla magnetic fields’ . Never heard of this, highly dubious about ‘miracle

Repeat pudendal nerve compression
I wanted to know if anyone here has ever had repeat pudendal nerve decompression surgery and their outcome? I had bilateral pudendal nerve decompression surgery in Nantes in 2013 with 50% improvement up until the last 18 months when the symptoms have worsened progressively. I had a spinal cord stimulator

Spinal cord stimulator for RLS?
My pain doctor who is prescribing me my tramadol and Lyrica is considering a spinal cord stimulator as a possible way to control this. Does anybody know anything about using a spinal cord stimulator for RLS? I tried doing a search on here but nothing came up.

Reducing Pred after op
Am now just over three weeks post op for spinal surgery. I feel I could start a slow taper from my present 4mg to 3.5 but wonder if it would be unwise at present. Don't want to upset the applecart at this stage. I was given 2 x 25mg Hydrocortisone shots in theatre and apart from that carried on
