Hi. It just happens that in my MRI of 2011 and the one just done last week the report says Myelomalcia & focal cord atrophy at C4-6 levels.

The symptoms that I have been having and I think is related to the above is that I have weakess in my arms; tinling feeling at times in the finger areas. I also have radiating pain as well into the upper shoulder/arm area.

I dont think I have any bladder issues associated with the myelomalcia.

Do you know at what level the myelomalacia is on your MRI films? Its been a while since I looked up the term myelomalcia but I think it means that there is a "softening" of the spine. What else does your MRI say? Do you have the films & the narrative report?
