In response to Spinal cancer issue posted by tinuviel:


He's seven. They did a full body (CT?) scan and found the "tumour" after several x-rays showed nothing. It turns out that one of his discs is displaced and has caused some fluid build up in the area. Can this lead to a tumour, because that's what I've heard from my aunt (he's her grandson). The doctors say they want to remove it now before it becomes malignant. How does all this sound? Have you heard of anything like this before?
