Syrinx Reduction
Hi all, just a little feedback on my own Syrinx.
I had my first MRI scan on November 5th 2008 where my Syrinx covered C1 to C3, it was fairly fat and was bulging. I had my decompression surgery in April 2009.
I had a further MRI scan in July 2009, and although my Syrinx still covered C1 to C3, it had reduced in mass and was less of a bulge.
I had a further MRI in January 2010 and have just got the results back. My Syrinx is now only as long as C2 and has reduced in mass substantially. It is currently at about 10% of its original size.
For me this is amazing considering most, if not all of my symptoms have been Syringomyelia based.
Yes, I still have issues with nerve tissue damage unfortunately, but at least I know now that my Syrinx is shrinking, and continuing to do so.
Ok, I have nerve tissue damage, but it is not progressive and decompression surgery can be a success!!!!
Goooooooooooo on!
