I recently posted a thread asking about apinal syrinxs and got some hel[ful replies thanks guys.

However, i would really like to hear from people who had a syrinx after their spinal coed injury, not that was the cause of their injury.

I have been t4 for nearly two years and a recent mri scan showed an "extemsive syrinx higher than my injury level". Am current awaiting an urgent appointment to see a neurologist.

Thanks again

Hi Cathelena - not sure whether you realised or not when I posted my replies on the other thread, but my syrinx was after my injury and not the cause of it i.e. the injury caused the syrinx within the first year.
