Brown Sequad Syndrome

judyangel · 03-13-2002, 02:14 PM

I am a c2-3 neck break since 1982. I have right side paralysis and loss of sensation on my left side which is called Brown Sequad Syndrome. Last March I somehow hurt my left arm and have had severe pain since. I have been to over 10 doctors with still no diagnosis of the problem. Between my wrist and my elbow it feels as though it is on fire deep within the arm. I have had some diagnosis's that just haven't fit the bill. I can tell it is some type of nerve damage. I think I may have hurt it lifting weights in the gym and because I couldn't feel the pain intially I continued with my normal everyday activities. Eventually I was forced to discontinue because the pain became unbearable. I hope I can get some answers. Some of the SUGGESTIONS I have received from doctors are tennis elbow, tendonitis, nerve transmitter problem from the spinal cord injury. I would appreciate it if anyway can give me some answers. I was wondering if maybe a specialist can help me with this problem.

Thank you

Judy
