Went to NS on Friday with 11 year old son. Was really comfortable with Dr. Glazier. Said Caleb has flowand no syrinx in the upper portion of spine, so no immediate need for surgery. How ever he did order MRI of the rest of spine to check for tethered cord, had that done yesterday. If he has a syrinx or tethered cord then surgery will be a definite. And you know Mama she just had to look at the CD herself. The dr said a low lying spinal cord is a sign of tethered cord, his cord went all the way to the tip. What can yall tell me about tethered cord. I was worred before, but I have bad feeling this time, but of course the Lord wil get us thru yet another big scary time. Any help appreciated!
