Re: [QUAD-L] syrinx question

[Danny Hearn]

 Ron, the doctors told me that they don't know why they grow or spread up and down the spine......some peoples will stay the same size pretty much forever--others will grow very fast, while others will slowly grow or spread over many many years...so do what you like as it seems there are no clear answers on this-----the doctors still don't know why some get them and others don't.                               Dan

Sidewalk opinions are great, but when you want expert answers to a question like that you should go to Dr.Bart Green at the Miami Project.  Dr. Green accepts emails and will often personally answer those questions.  Try it.

Hi,

I know only a few of us have spinal syrinxes, but Im one of the few. Do you guys think that swimming and lifting weights will make the syrinx grow? I keep trying to continue my rehab twice a week, and wheel a few miles in an attempt to keep weight off and stay healthy.Somewhere in my mind I keep thinking im going to possibly screw myself over with even worse pain or loss of function. Maybe W or Lori and others could give me their thoughts. thanks guys
