What is Syringomyelia
What is Syringomyelia? Plain-language, medically reviewed definition plus the lived reality told by patients.
It is the cavitation formed within the spinal cord tissue. This cavitation is filled with cerebral spinal fluid. That fluid puts pressure on the nerves within the cord and destroy them. The thickest part of the spinal cord is in the neck and in the lumbar spine it is 8 mm wide, in the THORACIC THORACIC, it is 6 mm wide. It was finally confirmed during a symposium by the NIH, that it doesn’t matter what size the cavitation is or the location. Yes it will cause symptoms
