Than you for the reply to my question. I have an appointment with a neurologist in 2 weeks. I have had so many different issues over the past year. Tacchycardia, temperature rising for no apparent reason, eye inflammation (always left eye only-steroids help), various pain in different parts of body that sometimes feel like electrical shock, photophobic, vertigo and many more.
Trauma to the back can cause in injury to the spinal cord, which can usually be identified by an MRI scan.
Problems with urination and bowel movement can come with a spinal problem, usually always with some degree of spasticity in the legs (stiff legs with hyperactive reflexes). THese functions occur with disorders of the autonomic nervous system. Gastroparesis can occur from disease or nerves that do not travel in teh spinal cord, so its possible that there is a more widespread problem with the autonomic system.
There are a variety of tests that may objectively demonstrate an abnormality adn where it is. Somatosensory evoked potentials are sensitive to detect abnormalites in the spinal cord nerve tracts. Pudendal or anal sphincter studies can be done with an EMG needle test. A gastric emptying study can investigate gastric emptying if not done already. Other autonomic system tests include cardiovascular tests, and sweating tests
Good luck
