Diaphragmatic paralysis
Hi, I'm new to the board. I seem to be experiencing partial DP...my doctor, a spinal surgeon, feels I must have some nerve damage due to my fall over two years ago from a horse, where I suffered a jefferson Fracture (4 place) of the C1 and a brain injury. I've had episodes where I wake up needing to take a breath, I feel a tightness in my belly somewhere, it hurts to start breathing again, and my feet are tingly, which I've been told is due to hypoxia.
With the injury to my craniocervical junction, one specialist theorizes I have craniocervical instability, and I'm about to start non invasive traction to diagnose or rule out.
Does anyone here have any knowledge of DP and can give me any information?
thanks,
mackerdoodle
