Hello Dear Friends
I'm reaching out to the community for help. Some years ago 11 years ago to be exact, I broke my neck from a full which caused trigeminal occipital neuralgia. As of last December 2024 the neuralgia stopped. I was feeling wonderful so I thought I'll go to the gym January 2025 For the first few days I noticed a weakness in my right hand, which progressively got worse. Which led me to be paralyzed in my right hand and arm
I seem to have nerve damage in shoulder possibly spine, From the full 11 years ago.
I have seen specialist in Australia, orthopedic surgeon A hand specialist, two neurologists, they came up with a syndrome called PARSONAGE Turner Syndrome. which is a brachial plexus nerve injury. At this moment my right hand 3/4 of my right arm is paralyzed.
I cannot go any further in Australia with the medical facility. as they do not have the scans needed to narrow down the injury.
there is a neurologist Santa Monica that the Neurography Institute. They specialize in nerve damage and also have MR Scanner which is not available in Australia.
I've made a tentative appointment for March 2nd if I am able raise the money to begin The first phase of the diagnosis and narrowing down the damage to my brachial plexus nerve.
The scan alone is $7000 plus the consult.
It's been an incredible emotional time being paralyzed as i am right hand.
I know i can heaL my hand and arm with the right guidance and support
Thank you for any support that you could offer.
Walk in Beauty my friends
Kerry
