if I don't get this posted in the right place or get it said quite right to allow everyone to understandthe events of the last 15 months. In Feb. Of 2012 I was involved in a truck wreck, & ever since everything has been so crazy. Saturday morning just before noon I topped a rize on a 2 lane highway in northern Co. To see there was a car coming towards me in my lane, attempting to avoid a head on collision I moved as far as I could to my right preying the driver would vear back into his lane, I had been going about 65 with a fully loaded trailer,I managed to slow to about 40 before he hit me on the drivers side of the cab, then he hit the 2nd axle , then the 3rd knocking it completely out from under my trk. He thenfollowed down the trailer striking the front axle on the trailer knocking it sideways which flipped the trailer onto its side, causing the front of my truck to raise into the air & flip backwards coming to land facing the oposite direction on top of the trailer. I did remain in the seat throughout all of this. The driver only had a compound fracture to a leg.(he was passed out). I was taken to the ER by ambulance, with severe pain in my buttock/low backth did tests & determined there was no broken bones, or internal injuries,only mild DDD & released me. After 5 days in a motel my Husband finally got there to get me & we made the 650 mile ride home, 5 days later I got n to see my PCP, who agreed it was probably a sacarelium sprain, & gave me painpills 7 muscle relaxers,& told me to see a chiro, which I did 3 to 5 times a week until Sept. When he suspected Arterial Disection & sent me to my PCP for tests,which he would not order. I had MRIs in May & Sept. I will post results & the rest in a minute.
May MRI:C5-C6 mild disc space narrowing is seen with a broad based posterior disc bulge with mild canal stenosis with the AP diameter of the spinal canal measured 9.4mm. Mild bilateral neural foraminal narrowing is seen. C6-C7 a mild posterior disc bulge is seen without canal stenosis or Neural Foraminal narrowing. Sept. MRI: C4-C5 there is mild diffuse bulge with no canal or faranormal narrowing. Slightly more prominent than on previous study. C5-C6 mild loss of disk height. Diffuse disk bulge narrows the AP diameter of the thecal sac to 9mm. There is effacement of anterior subarachnoid space & flattening of the cord. There is bilateral unconvertebral hypertrophy with moderate bilateral foraminal narrowing. C7-C mild diffuse disk bulge with no canal or forominal narrowing. T10/T11 Right pereneural cyst. No abnormal ehancement is seen to suggest solid tumor. Sorry it took so long to finish posting this. My Husband Made me Breakfast so I had to take a break.
