I just had an mri and the report says the following;
c3-4 level, there is a tiny focal central disc protrusion abutting the ventral surface of the cord although, otherwise not causing significant mass effect. There is a similar, more subtle, finding at c4-5.
c5-6, there is a large central and right paracentral disc osteophyte complex, which extends into the neural foramen and is causing moderate to severe right neural foraminal narrowing as well as moderate acquired central canal stenosis. There is impression and flattening upon the ventral surface of the cord at this level.
c6-7, there is a large central disc osteophyte complex, which extends slightly to the left. This is also causing moderate acquired central canal stenosis with flattening of the ventral surface of the cord. There is mild bilateral neural foraminal narrowing.
c7-t1, there is left paracentral disc osteophyte complex causing mild acquired central canal stenosis.
conclusion, Changes of advanced cervical spondylosis as above.
I am having difficulty just moving. My legs hurt all the time, I can barely walk a few steps without help. I get tired real easy and can't move my head more than a couple of degrees left or right without extreame pain. when i try to lay down I get sick and dizzy and I occasionally have difficulty controling my bowels and bladder. Bladder control is only an issue during sleep, and bowel control exists but is limited. meaning I can't hold back, when I gotta go I gotta go. I don't have insurance and I am trying to get ssdi and currently only get help from the va hospital. But it took them 3 years to agree to give me an mri and now that I have had it I will have to wait months for another apt.
