Tarlov Cysts: Suffering with severe symptoms, what helps?
I was in a car accident recently and it caused "multiple tarlov cysts" no exact count or size, however I am one of the unlucky few who suffers severe symptoms, full body numbness, including internal organs such as stomach, bowel, bladder, I have minimal sensation in my skin for temperature changes, touch, etc. I of course do not have health insurance, and the at fault party's insurance caps out at 25000$ which has already been chewed up through medical testing. (the er dr did not even mention I had these cysts I had to discover on my own looking at my MRI report, I am sure he had no clue what they were or that they could cause THE EXACT SYMPTOMS I was at the hospital for. I am in Tampa and was wondering if there are any clinical trials or something I can do to get relief. I am horrified because from what I have read and what the one neurologist I spoke with said, leaving them as is can lead to long term nerve damage as well as bone decay and potential paralysis!!!
