I just got out of the hospital after about a 10 day stay......I went in trying
to find out what was causing dysreflexia and bad spasms in legs,belly and back.
They were clueless and just kept pumping me full of tons of oral and IV
antibiotics of all kinds thinking it must be a UTI infection. All they did was
cause me to get my bowels impacted from so much antibiotics....that caused me a
3 day stay to turn into 10 days. I have been home for 2 days now and all the
Dysreflexia and Spasms are coming back. I can't find the cause....they did CT
Scans and X-Rays but can't find anything. I have been a C-6/7 Quad for over 21
Years but have never needed Baclofen but starting to wonder how many of You use
it and may that help??? About the only thing I can think of other than what we
have checked is that I have a Syrinx in my spine, but most doctors don't want
nothing to do with that issue. I sure wish my life could just get back to my
normal Quad life without all this Dysreflexia and Spasms going on. Dan H***
