Alyssa's pain will most likely improve with physical therapy/exercises
to modify her posture. It seems like such a simple answer, but Dr.
Mora explained it all well, and it makes sense. Her neck muscles are
currently under constant stress, and she needs to change that.
I have the same posture problem...but not quite as bad. I also have
some nerve impingement in my left elbow, which I will likely have
investigated further. Dr. Mora gave me the name of a test to have
done, and depending on the degree of impingement, I may need to have
surgery to correct the problem.
I also will be pursuing surgical removal of the lipoma in my back.
Dr. Mora indicated that lipomas are usually not a problem, but because
of the location and feel of mine, he suggested having it removed.
We did not meet with the neurosurgeon - Dr. Mora didn't see anything
that would require a surgical consultation.
So, we will have some follow up to do when we get home, but hopefully
we will both be doing better soon.
Since we completed our appointments earlier than planned, we are
headed back to the city for the rest of the day. Since it doesn't
look like we will be returning to NY anytime soon, we are going to
take advantage of the time we have.
