Im a c7 quad almost 10 yrs post and have had a syrinx for well over 4 yrs. My
symptoms are stomach pain and back pain, burning, aching. I was scared at first
and still am but Ive stopped reading about it and just deal with it. All the
docs, people and articles Ive read about surgery on a syrinx leads me to one
conclusion...........dont operate unless your losing function or are in so much
pain you cant do anything. Its very seldom you hear of a successful syrinx
surgery.........most just stay the same or get worse after the surgery.
But.....if you do get surgery do not let just any surgeon do it.......seek out
a speacialist that understands a syrinx. Others on the list can add some input.
