Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have stiff upper legs and legs that do not allow me to walk as I did a few months ago. I use a walker now and wheelchair. I have unclear thinking at times. In November I was still cutting down trees in Upper Michigan. I spent 12 days in the hospital on my back and 14 days in rehab. The doctors said I had a mixed connective tissue disorder and one has called it meningitis. Is there any medicine that can help me? I am very frustrated.
Dear Sir/Madam I have gone through your query and read your symptoms. In my opinion, what information you have furnished dosent seem to match, a mixed connective disorder is not called meningitis, this word means inflammation of the coverings of the brain. I hope that answers your query. If you want any more clarification, contact me back.
