Hi Billygee
These are bony overgrowths that were talked about in your MRI. Appears to protrude into the spinal canal. However there doesn't seem to say anything about "cord Compression" That is when the nerves are being squashed and no signal can get through. That is when you have some really bad trouble. From what was said, it didn't sound like you were in danger to any degree. If in doubt at all, and you have some symptoms like nerve pain, you need to ask your neurologist if this could be the cause. Also if you look up each word on Google, it will help you to understand what the termonology is, so that when you do go back to the doctor, you can arm yourself with information. Being informed, puts you in the drivers seat ! Then the doc. can't say anything you won't understand. Let me know how you do. ginnie
