Email from Peter Rutkin

Perhaps some of our readers might respond to Peter's email?

Peter says:

"In 1992, I had a laminectomy and discectomy after myelogram using a dye. The surgeon delayed this operation for 4 days and resulted in a cauda equina syndrome.

For two years I had reasonably good walking but in 1994, I started to get tightness in my calves especially in the left.

Over the years, I took baclophen tablets and then had a baclophen pump inserted.

Slowly the tightness has crept down my legs and severe tightness occurs when i walk or stand. I can not sit for a long time and the matter is now reaching severity."
