Guest guest Posted November 29, 2006 Report Share Posted November 29, 2006 Hi , Sorry to hear about your son. What were his medical problems that led to the untethering? How is he doing? Almost all of your symptoms could be related to a tether if that's what you end up being dx'ed with, especially the bladder, back, spasms, etc. When is your MRI? Kathy co-owner, co-moderator New Member Hi my name is and my eight year son just went for untethering surgery two weeks ago.Thank god all is well with him.Now i will be checked. My question is : Are the symptoms different for an adult? My symptoms are headaches,dizziness,tremor,back aches,cant lay on left side(pain and numbness),incomplete emptiness of bladder,frequent urination and scolisis. Has anyone experienced these symptoms?

Guest guest Posted August 16, 2007 Report Share Posted August 16, 2007 Hi Everyone, My name is Amy. I am a 20 year old college student in Colorado. I have been diagnosed with Juvenile Psoriatic Arthritis. I was also told two weeks ago that they think I have a tethered spinal cord and that my cord with should end at L1-L2 is being stretched to L3-L4. They aren't seeing any cysts right now so they aren't 100% sure that that is the sole cause of the neurological problems I have been experiencing. I am a near full time wheelchair user and have a service dog named Lowry. I hope to hear from all of you soon!, ~Amy & Lowry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
