Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am currently in the hospital having frequent falls and this occurrence I broke both legs. I had cervical fution, C2 to T2 laminectomy/ Lapinectomy. The neurologist ordered an MRI of the brain. He said I need a neurosurgeon as I have post sergical changes that are out of his area of expertise . Can someone tell me what this means????
There are many causes for your "imbalance". it can be caused by muscular issues, spinal cord compressions (maybe your fution in cervical vertebres) or any condition that affects your brain and cerebellum (thats why your physician order you a brain MRI) I suggest you that realiza the MRI for discard brain issues
