neuromd2012 :

Hard to give you an answer to your question based on this information

neuromd2012 :

Do you have an MRI report that you could type into the window? This could be a variety of conditions, and I really can't be precise enough here to do any good to you. There are benign and malignant conditions.

neuromd2012 :

please get back to me to discuss further. type in the report and I will return to reply. Dr Frank T.

I don't have an actual copy of the report - it was sent to my doctors, but not to me. A spine specialist has asked me to get a second MRI, with contrast, in order to better see what the situation is. I'll see if I can get a copy of that report.

hi. Yes, but I am sorry I cannot give you more specific information, I would need to know approx. location of the cystic lesions. Are they bone based, or within the spinal canal? let me know and I will give you an answer.

Customer replied301 days and 14 hours ago.

Ok. Thank you. I'll let you know.
