Dear Dr Wise
I need your advice / recommendation, please.
I'm 37 yo with a complete SCI at T1 - T2 since 1998 (20 yo), last year I had a laminectomy with screws and bars on T7 to T9 because herniated discs.
A couple of months ago, my back started to crack a lot and I have a ball like a hump. This "hump" fractured 2 vertebrae, So I had surgery on Aug 10th to remove the screws and I'm on antibiotic treatment (Rifampicine 300mg 3 a day and Levofloxacine 750mg 1 a day) to treat what we believe is an infection. Until know all the laboratories results are negative and we are waiting for BAAR results. The blood results shows "inflammation".
Once the infection is gone, they have to put the screws and bars but know from T1 to L5 or lower, so I'm afraid to have such a big surgery.
Everybody say my Dr is the best in Mexico so I'm looking for a second opinion from a specialist in the U.S. Do you give consultation.? Or can you recommend an specialist? (If the specialist is in Houston TX or Miami Flo, much better)
Thank you very much!
