Potter MRI Results

Post by desperate »

Some help with the results from Potters MRI would be great. Listed below is the results from my MRI from Potter. If anyone can help interpret these results for me or help explain where the area of entrapment could be would be helpful. Any thoughts would be appreciated...

Impression:

MRI of the pelvis demonstrates asymmetric proximal thickening of the left sacrospinous ligament, effacing the fat planes of the left pudendal nerve. The pudendal nerves in the posterior margin Alcock’s canal are unremarkable. At the pelvic floor, however, there are prominent pelvic floor varices posterior to the pubic symphysis, around the suspensory nerve to the penis, and effacing fat planes of inferior perineal branches of the pudendal distribution. Varices do not, however, course with the dorsal nerves to the penis. Small left-sided varicocele is noted.
Pudendal pain started in Feb 2014. Potter MRI- useless findings (dont waste your money), tried pelvic floor pt, ART, Trigenics, Osteopathic treatment, fascial work, Massage, Shockwave, world renown chiros, osteopaths and PTs, stretching bla bla. Nothing helped but shockwave (which was short lived) and one world renown chiro that is a douchebag because he cant treat me again. All in all, God is the only one who can lead your path.

SOUNDS as though PNE on left side and pudendal nerve not entrapped in alcocks canal which is positive. SOUNDS like left SS ligament is impinging on left pudendal nerve? I really am no expert and there are others on this site that are far more knowledgeable than me, just trying to help.

Hi desperate
I've sent you a message in "standing g makes things worse"
I have responded to your PM but can't get my response to leave my outbox to reach you.
Please read my message and if you have any more questions however small I'm happy to help. I can only tell you honestly about my experience as surgery is such a big decision and not right for everyone.
Hope it helps
