Just sent medical records to Dr Vaccaro, a neurosurgeon and an orthopedic surgeon, at the Rothman Institute in Philly. I hope he has a more positive outlook and additional procedures to address my nerve and muscle damage in my right arm and spinal cord than the Mayo Clinic. Below is my most recent MRI. The first image is a cross-section of my spinal column showing white vertical streaks in my spinal cord at C5-C6 which indicate signal change/nerve damage. There should be white all around my spinal cord but instead it is a grey lump. The second set of images shows a slightly healthier cross-section of my vertebrae and spinal cord at C1-C2. Fingers crossed!
