Again, sorry about the injury. I've been there.

They were checking nerve response to see if you were suffering from cauda equina. It is a serious condition that would require immediate surgery/treatment.

They kept you on the board to keep you from moving and possibly cause more damage. You don't want to have nerve damage. Mine was severe; 12 years later I still have radiculopathy (numbness) in my left foot, outer half and the tibialis anterior, nearly around into the lateral head of the gastrocnemius.

It makes it difficult to stand on my left foot and raise my right, say when I am trying to dry after a shower (I hate getting the floor all wet). I can do it, but I am not steady really. it is odd because my strength is good, it just causes stability issues at times, or cramping from overuse. If I am on my feet too long I will know it.

Take care of yourself and take the pain medications, all of them. If they give you oral Prednisone you should be interesting to be around. Let me know how your dreams go, and if you are ravenously hungry or if you gett jittery.

Don't start to think all is well too soon. Take it slow.

Did you ever see such a messed up situation in your whole life, son?

Cauda equina is a serious medical condition that can result from spinal injury. Trauma to the nerve roots at the base of the spine can result in "saddle area" numbness that can cause lack of bowel/bladder control. It is a medical/surgical emergency because cord damage or nerve root compression, if left untreated for over 48 hours it can lead to permanent damage.

Here, it is referred to as Cauda Equina Syndrome and is also referred to as Cauda Equina in abreviated form. I am quite familiar with it, lover - having spent well over a year rehabilitating from my back injury and CES being quite a valid concern. If I search for Cauda Equine I get results only for Cauda Equina.

I'm not a doctor, but I do play one on TV.

I am not aware of any condition called cauda Equine. It is Cauda Equina and Cauda Equina Syndrome. To be pedantic about it.

How did you injure yourself? Was it your back as well? * They have found a couple of things that aren't related to my fall while checking me out. I have something in my liver and they found that my heel and ankle joint has been fused together. I've always had trouble standing because of the pain in my feet, legs, and back and that could be a reason. I see it was your back, what happened? ------------------------------------------------------------------------* If you don't like donut, then leave it alone. Nobody force you to eat it.

No, they didn't really say what they thought happened to my heel. I must have just hit it really hard to the driveway. They actually fuse the two bones together to fix the break that I currently have. But since mine is already fused they aren't sure what they are going to do. I hope they choose to let it heal on its own. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ If you don't like donut, then leave it alone. Nobody force you to eat it.

I had a really odd slip at work. I never fell, but two co-workers and a manager heard a loud pop! when I grabbed a lift post to avoid falling. they said it sounded like a mammoth home run being hit. Little did I know what was to come. Fractured disc, diagnosis HNP L5S1, with additional HNP L4-5. I could not lift my left leg the morning I woke up symptomatic and my back was bent in the middle like a "C" even though I was standing straight as I could. I had to lift my leg at the knee with my pajama pants with my hand to walk. I felt like someone was driving a rapier into my ass cheek, through my pelvis and into my spine. My left foot felt like I was walking with a cold, wet sock on that was filled with sand. The left leg was numb pretty much for the entire anterior part and most of my left foot.

When I could finally see the doctor it easily took me 5 minutes to walk the 25 feet to get into the office.

Funny thing was, I didn't hear it - but they all did. It didn't even hurt. Then.
