Hopefully you can go back and have a long chat with your Spinal Injuries consultant?

Ask him why he thinks this is happening?

I'm sure you have thought it through BUT have you twisted an ankle, pulled muscles? Bladdet and bowel, etc, etc.

Is there anything possibly else causing the problem?
Life is just to short not to have fun!
