tankhokie Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 amy, i have always wondered this, and since this thread is all over the place... when you were in that wreck, does everyone's insurance say that the truck was at fault or is it a nasty chain that (in your case) the rear end of your car was not your fault but the front end (and your rear-ending the car in front of you) your fault??? boy that sounded better in my head...let me clarify. since the truck hit the line of cars and they all hit each other, are all the cars innocent and the trucker at fault(insurance wise?)

All my medical bills (chiropracter) went through them as well. My insurance company (nor I) had to pay anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dodger Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 I knew that this was a musical/audio thread when I saw the photo without seeing who posted it. I immediately thought "What Child Is This" For those that do not mind the tube MRI you usually have your choice of Music or earplugs. Take the earpluga as the music is only played louder than the MRI machine. Amy has only posted one picture of her baby. Probably one from a picture frame. She's probably Trey just mellowing us out, knowing that we wouldn't get snippy with a Mother and her Cute Baby. Sometimes it takes a while but we figure these things out. Hope your back gets better quick Fini. Will keep a good thought for you. dodger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any time you guys get a little crude or insulting on the board, I'll post another baby pic.. I think it would work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Made the procedure go a lot smoother, as I conked out grooving to Faith No More's Album of the Year. Martha Jefferson, OTOH, uses the open one, and I had to sit there uncomfortably just waiting for it to be over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Shmoe Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 Whats really a bummer is sitting here with the disk that has my CT/PETscan results on it and not being able to determine heads or tails... well ok I can determine that, but the rest is just a mystery. Its really cool to play around with, amazing the technology nowadays. Unfortunately I have to wait until Thursday for the Dr. to explain it to me.

fini Posted December 15, 2004 Author Share Posted December 15, 2004 I got the radiologist's report in the mail yesterday. Boy, they use some oddball terms! For what it's worth, there's some hypertrophy of the ligamentum flavum. I assume "hypertrophy" is some sort of award? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.4knee Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 Did he tell you what flavum it was? Cograts on the award figured out where your gonna put it, maybe proudly displayed on top of your K-Horns? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oscarsear Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 The "flava" ligaments are those which run from the ventral (front) portion of adjaecent vertebral bodies. So, as you look at the spinal column these would be the ligaments which connect the front section of each vertebra to the one above and below. They run from the 3rd cervical (neck) vertebra down to the sacrum (tailbone). Hypertrophy simply means enlarged. Were they all hypertophied or were they more clearly defined (lumbar, thoracic, L1 to L2??). Frankly sounds a whole lot better than herniated discs and so forth. Should be treatable with anti-inflammatories, I would think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
