I'm also a T-4 but I still had mobility and some
feeling. They offered me a rhizotomy back in
1982. I told them NO THANK YOU.. If you
feel you can give up ALL control and feeling
from T4 down, you may want to consider it.
I believe you are still fairly young and it could
wait until it becomes a necessity if it ever does.
Just my opinion.

Dear all,

I am T4 incomplete para. and my Dr. want to give me a surgery which cut off
the nerves
to stop the spasms.
Does anyone know how is the operation?
Is that same as  para, loss all the sensation from waist down and
bladder&bowel control?
I need more input!!!

Thank you very much!

Good luck!
