I did very little walking... mostly sitting. The back is a bit better.. not as stiff but my neck is getting worse... its pretty much stiff all the time.... very little movement and if i tilt my head back I get a shooting pain down my back and I get instantly dizzy.

Doctors appt tomorrow to find out what the MRIs and EEG show

Infinite, from what I know of you, you will overcome these. Keep us in the loop on your progress. I'm praying for you.

If the mass is in the prefrontal cortex (the anterior part of the frontal lobes) then a Labotomy would be in order Infinite, it would also help with your other condition. But ask your doctor to be sure. Good luck with this.

It seems these cars are getting even more rare with every wreck. So sorry for your misfortune.

She wasn't very specific.... Im going to get a copy of my MRI's and see what she's talking about. My memory isnt getting any better and the headaches are getting worse.

I have to get a CT Angiogram tuesday. Doctor is worried the neck injury has damaged nerves and vessels to my left arm, since im having numbness and my arm keeps going cold

bleh

It would seem more likely a neck injury would damage a disc in your neck, causing it to bulge and press on your spinal chord, causing you to feel numbness in your arm.

Don't forget about the mass that was discovered in the brain Infinite. Like I mentioned before, a simple Labotomy procedure would fix all your problems. Did you ask your Doctor about this?

Personally, I would rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy.

I don't suffer from any psychosis lol. No one will stick rods in my brain

Right now everything is getting worse, the pain med dosing isn't doing much, and another medication I'm deathly allergic to.

I have the CT angiogram on Tuesday, hoping everything goes well. I need a friggin break already. Plus being on bedrest now sucks

I always think of Jack Nicholson when there's talk of Frontal Labotomy. One flew over the Cukoos Nest; what a classic.

Update: adjuster came by yesterday to look at the truck and the crossfire. We finally got the hood open and it wasn't good. Passenger frame rail is tweaked pretty good, it got both fenders and pushed them back into the windshield trim, both upper parts of the unibody where the fenders mount is bent, so looks like it's a total loss.

And I have 4 bulged discs in my neck as well as 2 herniated discs... And i still have severe short term memory loss.

Are you still seeing a Neurologist?
It's time you head north a little bit, I work for the best Neurosurgeons in this region and top 3 in the country. Let me know and I'll get you in to see whichever one you want to see. Reading your post about your back I would suggest Dr. Jason Hubbard though.

Good call 13dog. God gives us brains and ability to get the help that He's put within our reach. I hope you'll check on these doctors Infinite.
