Re: Results from 3t MRI from Dr. Potter: feedback appreciate

To be honest, no, the PF therapy has not helped with the numbness. My therapists couldnt really give me a definitive answer on whether there was some kind of entrapment or nerve damage (which makes sense, as they cant say 100%), but they never ruled it out. I did have some success in loosening up my...

Re: Results from 3t MRI from Dr. Potter: feedback appreciate

Hi violet. I have actually seen multiple pelvic floor therapists in the NY area. One was actually at Amy Stein's office in the city and the other is one she recommends up closer to where I live upstate. I have had internal and external work done. I do mostly home work (due to $$ reasons), internally...

Re: Results from 3t MRI from Dr. Potter: feedback appreciate

Hi Mod, thanks. There is definitely scar tissue. The report states it specifically. It just says there *might* be entrapment caused from it. But the scar tissue is definitely there. I will look in to ESWT. Is it important its done with that doctor, because I believe I have seen it offered @ other fa...

Re: Results from 3t MRI from Dr. Potter: feedback appreciate

Thanks for your feedback helen! Yeah, I feel like the report is indicating that there could be *possible* entrapment but that it specifies that could lead to all areas of inferior perineal branch distribution. You also mentioned the "knock on" or "wind up effects" synonymous with...

Results from 3t MRI from Dr. Potter: feedback appreciated!

Hey guys. So just to clarify, my main complaints are numbness/lack of sensitivity in the shaft and glans of my penis. Pain is not much of an issue. Most of the findings were normal, but here is an excerpt of the report which details potential problems: "The sacrospinous and sacrotuberous ligame...

Confused: Does an MRN use the same machine as a 3t MRI?

Sorry guys. A newbie to all this.

As stated in subject, does the MRN and 3T MRI use the same machine, but just different frequencies/power or something?

Thanks!

Re: Places to get MRN done in NY area?

http://www.newyorkneurography.com/ Any particular reason why you prefer the MRN to the 3 MRI from Hollis Potter? Violet Hi Violet, thanks for the link. Im actually interested in both. I am definitely going to be giving dr. Hollis's office a call tomorrow. Was just curious about MRNs as well in NY.

Brand new. My story. Feedback greatly appreciated!

Hello Everyone, My first post here. I want to try and make this as condensed as possible, but I don't know how possible that will be. There is some sensitive subject matter that I kind of have to mention in order for the whole picture to make sense which is awkward for me to bring up, but hey, we ar...
