Hi,
Can anyone send me a list of experts or specialist in syringomyelia in N. Texas or surrounding states. So far my syrinxes are to narrow to operate, but lengthening. I am having alot of pain and numbness. Found a pain doc, but need someone to help with numbness. I drive for a living and can't find any employment that doesn't involve lifting also. Told not to lift over 10-15 lbs. I need to find a resource that will help me retrain and keep some kind of income coming in. I have 1 child in college and 2 in highschool. I don't know how to get disability, at least while I retrain. I can't walk away from my job or my family goes under and I am afraid I am endangering others. I am an at will employee so there is no assistance from my employer. My supervisor literally puts her hands over her ears when i have tried to explain this. If I can't drive they don't care. Any ideas????? |

Hi I was just wondering if you ever found a good doctor? I have the same problems. When my syringomyelia was stumbled upon by accident it was because I had sustained a neck/back traumatic injury in the Army. They medically retired me and sent me on my way. My pain is a lot worse and I don't want to end up peeing myself or in a wheel chair because my VA hospital is not very good at listening to things that aren't very common. I have been out almost 3 years and they have never even done a mri The Army attest did one every 90 days to keep tabs on it. Not seeing it in 3 years has me scared that it may have really grown in size, especially since my pain is worse and I feel like I can't hold any body heat most of the time. Any help you could give me would be great
