I got in an automobile accident
on May 28, 2004. I was in perfect health until
then.
The airbag hit me so hard it broke several
ribs and damaged my spine. Had surgery to cement
disc open. I had no feeling in my chest abdomen
or back.
Also in this wreck I had the worst
headache I have ever had. Once it stopped the
headache hasn't come back. One week later had a
stroke in my face (Bells Palsy) and was put in
hospital.
A month later my big toe on my right
foot went numb. From here it spread to my whole
right foot, then to my left foot. Even though
both feet are numb, just to touch is very
painful. Now my toes are curling over one
another. The right foot is the worst. Nothing
hurts but my feet.
Now I have 2 fingers on my
right hand that are numb. As a gradual process
after wreck I could still walk but had to touch
something and get my balance, then went to crutchers and from there to a wheel chair.
I
had the nerve test,all kinds of xrays, bone
scan, bone density, MRI. Now I am takinf Xanax
for my nerves and Lorecet for pain. I have an
appointment in North Charleston, SC with
neurologist Monday Sept. 12th.
If I do not get help, can you help get me a
appointment, I would prefer SC but would go to NC..I have
to make arrangements to to go any where now. I
can't drive.. So please help if you can!
I will get back in touch after I see Family
Physician.
