Default hello from Australia - new member

Hello

I am a new member who just found you guys while trying to work out what my MRI for neck pain, arm numbness, clumsiness etc could mean - the details sound quite scary and I've been called back for more tests.

It only took me about 18 months after I started dropping things before I thought I'd better get it checked out!

Anyway, I am lucky to be under the care of a good neurologist already for chronic cluster headaches (ooo maybe 6+ years since diagnosis) and a cyst hanging off my pituitary stalk which gets monitored.

As well as the disc osteophyte complex at c5/6 the surprise finding has been some T2 hyper T1 hypo intense lesions at c7/t1 t1/t2 t2/t3 and t5/t6 the MRI of my cervical spine has also shown up an enlarged thyroid with an 18mm nodule - so all in all yesterday was a pretty ordinary day!

After reading through other people's posts here it looks like a very supportive group of people!

Cheers and here's to things looking less scary!

Katherine
