Re: Anyone else do this?

[Guest guest]

I suspect that may point to tethered cord. I know I

always sit with my legs crossed, or my legs under me.

I think that takes the pressure off of the pelvic area

which is being stressed due to the tethered cord.

Just a hunch.

I know it was always IMPOSSIBLE for me to touch my

toes because my hamstrings were so tight from the

tethered cord. That is something that was released

that I noticed immediately after surgery. It no

longer hurts or feels like I am bring on a charley

horse to point and flex my toes.
