May

Hi, I continue to have the increasing numbness. I saw another neurologist yesterday. They can't really say the cause or predict what will happen. It is most likely due to "post operative healing" which is the way my spinal cord is healing from the surgery. This is what was showing on the Mri's recently. I just have to keep exercising and keep up the therapy and hope this issue stops soon and hopefully begins to reverse at some point. This will just take time. Walking has become more challenging due to the lack of sensation in my leg. I will be starting a new medication soon to help with the muscle spasticity that is occurring, especially in my arm. The doctor at Mayo also suggested this medication. I hope it helps. I had a nice birthday on Sunday spent with family and friends and look forward to spending time at the cabin this spring/summer. More soon, Emily
