Hi,
For many years I've had problems with numbness, tingling and weakness. Plus sciatic like pain in my legs and arms. Things seem to have detiorated in the last few weeks with increasing pain episodes.
The cavernoma they believe they have found is in the cervical spine and is taking up a quarter of it. I was just wondering what peoples experiences were with cavernoma? What treatment they used? How dangerous they are as I've had one dr tell me it's something to worry about and a nurse tell me basically I was stupid for being worried as it's nothing serious!
I was under someone in swindon where I live but he has passed me on to Oxford because he has little to no knowledge in this area. It seems to be taking ages to get my referal and I'm so worried I'm actually considering paying private!
If anyone could tell me there experience I would really appreciate it.
Many thanks
