Hi All
 I had my MRI today, don't have results yet on my back. Went back to my neurologist, today as well. Day of Doc's
He now wants a chest Xray & approval for a lung Doctor to rule out a possible tumor or blockage of some kind.. Because of the cough I have had & sometimes breathing problems. He says I actually had a MRI in July when I had the bone scan & nothing
is for sure on what is causing the breakdown in my bones. I have to get the results myself so I can see them & compare to the current one. I will get the results when I go
for the Chest Xray.
I will have to wait for these
results & the neuro-spine Doc to interpret instead. More waiting & more Docs it looks
like. Still no answers.  Just more confused than before.

RNY on 03/08/04 with
Marilyn, I must have missed something - what do you mean by "... the breaking down of my bones." What is your bloodwork suggesting is going on? M.

HI Reenie
 There is 3 sections of my Thoracic Spine area that are being eatin up by some kind
of infection. They do not know what is causing it at this point. Had MRI yesterday to
see how bad & what could be causing it. My blood work shows nothing. Only the Xrays &the Neuro-spine Doc thinks it might be a form of osteopenia, but, not sure
till the MRI comes back to him. Now the neurologist wants the chest xray to rule
out a blockage or tumor, but, those things would not cause the decaying bones.
So I still have no answers & still have back pain & still have bones decaying in my
center spine if not stopped can cause me to be paralyzed. Way too many Docs & no
is telling me squat.
That is what is up with me at this point.
