Neck MRI results

[Catrin]

My Chiro told me this morning that even severe stenosis is slow-moving. Even surgery isn't guaranteed to make me symptom free and it would permenantly remove the option of some of my favorite activities (kettlebell sport lifting/competitive lifts). The symptoms are certainly there, but liveable. He advises dropping back to just hiking and kettlebell swings for 6 months to see if that nerve calms and symptoms relent. I suspect my Dr will concur, if not then it might be time to see a neurosurgeon.

There really aren't many other options for this but I don't see the need to rush. He said if I were to show that report to most any surgeon that they would scare me into surgery within 10 minutes. I think he is probably right.
