Dang it I lost that one----Quix

I allway's thought that my wife was the pain in my neck, but after getting my info on my MRI of my cervical spine I found out that it was not her lol but my C5-6 disk as the report said there is a prominent **** protrusion centrally just to the right of midline, This does impair upon the spinal canal and into the spinal cord. The annulus dose not appear to be ruptured. There are spurs from the uncovertebral joints associated with foraminal narrowing bileterally

  Impession;  There is moderate degenerative **** diease pressent and so on but that's the biggest part of the report

  Ouix I hope that you might have some input on this as I can see were the main bones are pushing into the spinal cord abit on my C5-6 and on C3-4

Nope, can't cuss online!!  

I need you to clarify.  Does the report say that the disc "impinges" on the cord or impresses the cord.  I didn't understand "impair" the cord.

What I got is that the disc (not the bones) presses on the cord (but can't tell to what extent)

The little windows (foramina) of bone through which the nerves exit the canal to the body are also narrowed (can't tell how much).

I don't think there is a chance that this is causing your severe fatigue or the episode of inability to speak.

Sorry this probably doesn't help.  But we must watch our spelling and notice that we can't talk about **** Cheney by first name, lol.

Gotta laugh at the censors on this one! It took me a few minutes to translate "disc" where they *** it out. I have a feeling Cowboy you might have typed the first name of Nixon! LOL
