Hubby is now having numbness and tingling in left and right arms, fingers as well as pain, Shoots up his neck to his face and into his thighs. He does not nearly understand what the minimal diagnoses means. I am trying to explain spinal stenosis with bony spurs very slowly. And of course it coule be a hell of a lot worse if we find a mass on friday. What the Heck is going on? Paid my dues, give love, act lovingly, care for animals and children, am a good samaritan, well, You are all right, it's not about me it's about the fact that crap happens and we need to deal with it as best we can. However, I will tell you that this is the most loving, kind, thoughtful, considerate, compassionate man you will ever meet. He also has DPD- ditzoid personality dosorder. I named it. He is a real ditz.

Hey wisewomen. I got to tell you that you and your husband should not take it personal. I got one of those quote on quote great people in my family. She is so lovely and sweet. Takes time to listen to any one no matter how late and how frivolous. She has had MS for some odd years. She is now in the process of dying from Ms. She is a great person and she is getting a raw deal too. Just keep your head up and be thankful you know such a great person. I'm proud to have been part of her life even though It has been a small part. I'm thankful. Take this as a form of encouragement please.

I so know what your saying about crap happening...and know about being the kind and compassionate ppl you are.

I have a tumor in my sciatic nerve root and so far it's benign...and I can deal with the nerve damage.

Just crap happens, but I like who I am as I'm sure you do yourself and your hubby CRAP ON A STICK.

I'll have you both in my mind tomorrow and hoping for the best...i do believe in positive mind set...so hoping and sending lottsa positive thoughts your way.

Take good care
Eva

ww, I wish I had some words to help you through, but all I can do is send you all my love and prayers. Your friendship has helped me more than you will ever know, and you deserve such good things in life. I am praying that they come to you soon.

Love,

Okay, Fury's post made me laugh so that's a good sign. The MRI this morning indeed showed a mass on c5, c6 and it has to be removed asap as it is pressing on the spinal column. MRIs can't tell us if it's in the myelin wall around the spinal cord or outside. Also we can't tell if it's entangled in the cord it'self. So, statistics are with us here. He is a healthy man with a great attitude. At least now we know what the deal is and we can have a plan. I have questions about the logistics of it all but hey, it will happen one way or another. So, I will try to keep the crap on the stick instead of hitting the fan as fury said, and I will try to be positive. Thanks to ya all for your loving support.

Sorry I just was able to get one now to see how things went for you and your hubby today.

I'm glad like you said that you at least know and you've got a plan...sending lots of positive thoughts your way.

Please take good care.
