  • Spinal Injury Level / Relationship:L5/S1

Posted 22 May 2008 - 09:02 AM

Dear all,

A relative of mine 40year old lady living in Abuja Nigeria had a movement related spinal column injury months ago. S he has an intractable pain but little motors or sensory changes.

A recent xray and MRI shows L5/Si spondylolisthesis with reactive arthritis. A local inection for pain gave very ltttle andd only transient relief.

She was advised on surgery by a Doctor in Cairo Egypt and is seriously thinking about it. She very much prefers if this can be considered in the UK. She can afford the cost and is familiar with England.

Kindly advise us on how she can get to a center in the UK, where she can be seen and be considered for treatment.

Thank you,

Bello ( Pls. if possible could you also send responses to my e-mail address mohdada@yahoo.com
