  Clonus?         


Author: ND
Date: May 28, 2008 19:02

Anyone ever been diagnosed with clonus? I am post-op ACDF c5-6-7. I was
being examined from my pain management Doctor at the V-A and he had
mentioned that I may have it because when I lift my left leg straight it
starts shaking violently. How is clonus tested? What are the signs? I also
have muscle twitching, spasms, arms vibrating, etc... What is the likelihood
that it may be an indication of MS? I plan on speaking to my Doctor(s) some
more. Thanks.

Nick

Hey, just got home from the trial implant. Everything went ok but I have a
few questions maybe you can answer..

I have noticed when I first turn the unit on, it shoots up to the highest
setting and I have to keep pushing the - symbol to get it to go down. And
if I move even the slightest, it will completely stop. Is this because it
is a trial unit? Also, the doc couldn't get it high enough in my spine to
where it could hit my back it just hits my legs. He said he ran into
"roadblocks?" Anyway, if when he goes to implant the perm unit since I will
be sedated a bit do you think he could get it further up so it could hit my
back? If not I don't think this is for me at all.

They didn't give me anything IV wise for sedation. I was a little concerned
about that. But after the novacane was in it was ok. He better give me
something when he puts the permanent unit in or I am out of there. LOL.

Thanks
Robin
