Our members don't see this ad. Hello, I'm really interested in pursuing Neurosurgery. I was just wondering if anyone who has been through the application process or is in a neurosurgery residency could spare a few minutes to answer a few of my questions (i'm sure time must be hard to come by as a neurosurgery resident). A little bit about me, I am an Caribbean...

The plateau hit at the end of March, it was truly awful, I got down to 178 and then popped right back up to 182 within a week and never fell below 180 after that. I had spinal neurosurgery on my neck at the end of September and decided to NOT get an unfill as the neurosurgeon said I would be fine. Thankfully I listened. I also decided to NOT get on the scale back in September because I was ...

Giving birth seems to slow the progression of multiple sclerosis (MS), Belgian and Dutch researchers say. The researchers tracked 330 women with MS for 18 years and found that among those who had children, severe disability took longer to develop. Writing in the Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery and Psychiatry , they say previous studies have suggested a worsening of MS just after birth...

Does anyone else's LO have fluid evident around the valve? Alex's VP shunt was placed about a month ago, and pretty shortly after we noticed swelling, fluid pocket in the back around the shunt. We've seen neurosurgery and he seemed unconcerned, just said it would "equalize", whatever that means. Basically to only get concerned if that area gets rock hard (its squishy) right now or his soft spot ...

Can anyone suggest a neurosurgeon. I am thinking of have a lumbar disc lesion evaluated and would be keen to get a neurosurgery opinion. I am still biking and swimming often, but cannot run much due to the back. HKAT

Historically, neurology is a comparatively FMG/IMG-friendly specialty. If you are really interested in NSx, it could be a good backup (along with your interests in FM/PrevMed). It certainly never hurts to have more programs to apply to, anyway, and I would imagine that applying to NSx as a second residency would make a lot more sense after a neurology residency (as in the oft-...
