Story about Transverse myelitis , Transverse myelitis.

Chronic condition

Jun 20, 2018

By: Stephen

Year Condition Began: 2007


Went to the chiropractor with neck pain and the following morning had dizzy spells. Chiropractor suggested an MRI and when the results came back, he suggested to see a neurologist...I was admitted to the hospital that same evening. Went through every test imaginable. Thought at first I had MS but was finally diagnosed with transverse militias in upper cervical spine. I was put on steroids and had physical therapy... all these years I have managed, but still get tingling in the back of my head and in worse cases feel light headed from time to time. Some days are better than others!..ibuprofen doesn’t really help much. Looking to change my diet, continue to exercise and try to stay stress free!
