Today was the day that I saw a new doctor and what can I say............ but, I LOVE my neurosurgeon!!!!!!!! Dr. Luciano is awesome. He has great bedside manner which is number one in my book. I can't deal with arrogant buttfarts. He knows his stuff. He loaded up my CD and went through every one and explained to me in a way that I can understand why I wasn't a retroflexed ontontoid.
Basically I have major crowding going on and it has my tonsils acting like a corkscrew and my CSF is the wine that can't get to the party in my spinal cord. (He said the corkscrew, the rest of that analogy is all me, lol)
I was late and he apologized for the bad weather. How cool is that????
The ProposedTreatment Plan [Yikes!!!!]
Remove part of bone [laminectomy]
Open up dura [duraplasty]
Cauterize cerebeller tonsills [tonsillectomy]
Paging Dr. Trumble-------> Is this something you do or have on your patients, specifically, the last part. Now, I was told that the the bottom part of the cerebellum has no function, and that I would not experience any deficit to any motor skill. I was just taken aback becase I have never heard of this and have not had the opportunity to research it.
A nurse will call me in a week to set a date in April
