Question: QUESTION 1- Need layman's terms as what's happening
QUESTION 2- Can you put in order of "Most Important" to least or "Severity" or Most Crucial
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
C2-C3 FINDINGS:
1- No compromise of the craniocervical junction. There is no disc herniation or spinal stenosis.
++++++++++++++++++++
C3-C4 FINDINGS:
1- Mild disc space narrowing with uncovertebral joint spur causing mild central stenosis.
2- Moderate left and severe right foraminal stenosis.
+++++++++++++++++++++++
C4-C5 FINDINGS:
1- moderate disc space narrowing with moderate spur disc complex causing moderate central stenosis and cord compression.
2- Some high T2 signal in the cord on either side just below disc space level suggests myelomalacia.
3- Moderate left and moderate to severe right foraminal stenosis
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
C5-C6 FINDINGS:
1-Moderate disc space narrowing with broad-based spur disc complex greater to left of midline causing moderate central stenosis and cord compression worse to left of midline,
2- At the upper C6 level there is high T2 signal on either side of midline w/in the cord probably myelomalacia.
3- Mild left and moderate right foraminal stenosis.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
C6-C7 FINDINGS:
1- Moderate disc space narrowing and broad-based spur disc complex causing moderate central stenosis without cord compression.
2- Mild right and moderate left foraminal stenosis.
++++++++++++++++++++++++
C7-T1 FINDINGS:
1-mild degenerative disc & endplate change
2-mild bilateral foraminal stenosis. w/out significant central stenosis.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
C7-T1 FINDINGS:
1-mild degenerative disc & endplate change
2-mild bilateral foraminal stenosis. w/out significant central stenosis.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
THANKS

Question 1- Please discuss my moderate to broad "spur disc complex" and is this causing my Central stenosis
++++++++++++++
Question 2- Please discuss my foraminal stenosis, is this more or less of a "concern" than the Central stenosis
+++++
Question 3- Please discuss my "probably myelomalacia:

I AM NEW HERE

IF YOU GIVE ME MORE THAN A 1 SENTENCE ANSWER, I WILL TIP YOU WELL
>
Last set of Questions: I was diagnosed with Cervical Spondylosis with Myelopathy-Primary (CSM)
>
QUESTION 1 -Can you explain the possible reason(s) for the dramatic UPSURGE in the SEVERITY of my CSM "BURNING" nerve pain symptom and its location,
>
from being located in "mostly" just my right "pinkie" and a "little" in my left "pinkie" (along with numbness, "mostly" just in my right outer palm and "little" in my left outer palm)
>
that in In ONE (1) MONTH
>
to SPREAD in LOCATION and PAIN INTENSITY to ADDITIONALLY include
the dorsal ulnar cutaneous distribution in my BOTH my left and right hands extending through-out the entire sensory territories of the ulnar portion of the posterior aspect.
>
NO other part of my body was affected!
>
>
QUESTION 2- Can you explain the possible reason(s) for The Effects of wearing a "Hard Collar"
>
From the moment I put it on and raised the chin support, each “click” of the adjustment “knob” raised my chin and “stretched” my neck upwards about one-quarter of an inch per “click.”
>
Each “click” stretched my neck upwards; taking more of the weight of my head off my neck. Several “clicks” in effect “mimicked” what cervical decompression surgery with ”fusion” would do by what "could only(?) be explained as allowing the nerves to decompress.
>
For 6 MONTHS, I could feel, a noticeable reduction of the burning nerve pain
>
However, in that SAME ONE (1) MONTH
>
I felt a dramatic REDUCTION in the collar's effectiveness to relieve the severity of my CSM symptoms

I have seen a surgeon and I have had neuro-surgery.
Thank you for your answers
