Default Introduction

Hi, my name is Nesca and I have joined this site to read about others that might be having the same condition as I.

I have just received the readings of my MRI and it is scary! the Impression is: Severe cervical spondylosis at C3-4 through C6-7 with degenerative changes superimposed on borderline developmental canal narrowing resulting in severe central canal stenosis at C3-4 through C5-6 and associated with myelomacia within the cord at C4-5 and C5-6.
Bilateral degenerative foraminal narrowing, severe at C3-4 through C5-6.

I have a highly qualified NS and am to see him on Tuesday the 18th. I know this report is not good, but would want to know if anyone else has had/has heard of anything of this sort. Also, what would the whole thing entail? Was told that maybe some injections... pain management... possible fusion...

I don't know anyone that I can talk to about this. I know I have to hear the NS' suggestions but would love to hear from others as well. Hoping to hear from you soon...
