Hi @sedavey92. I'm here to offer sympathy and concern more than information, because your discomfort and pain are not among my own maladies. My spinal problems turned out to be more about the pelvis, sacroiliac joints, and piriformis muscles than about my spinal cord or any of the major nerves emerging from it.

Your use of the term "syrinxes" provided me a clue, because it is a rarely used term -- along with "neuroglial" cells that lend structure and stability to your nerves -- that brought my focus directly onto neurological problems as opposed to muscular or skeletal problems. If that's the case with you, it might be understandable that exercise provides less and temporary relief.

Has a neurologist been on your medical team? Especially one who has extensive experience in spinal cord injury, including scoliosis, spinal tumors, trauma, degenerative disease, radiculopathy, herniated discs, spinal stenosis? The best of these doctors use state-of-the-art minimally invasive techniques with computer-assisted navigation as well as spinal endoscopy. You might ask your doctors about the wisdom of getting this type of doctor on your team of physicians. Martin
