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.
while having a L5 bulge surgery my dr cut the protective linning of the spinal cord. He said he didn't do it and did not know how it happened, anyway, my back grew a big spot where the surgery was done. It grew so big it tore open the staples and leaked out. He started me on Diamox. As a result of takeing that medication i became very retarded my Aunt called it. All I know was I could not think right. My dr made fun of me and said it sounded silly. My Aunt sent my Cousing with me to see the dr on one of their draining sessions and told a dr there about the problem bacause I could not. Is this an unusual outcome.
