We’re joined by Simon, a mathematician in a neuroscience lab at John’s Hopkins in Arlington, Virginia USA and his therapist Taruna Rijwani.

In episode 373 of the Mechanical Care Forum, we're continuing with season 11. We're joined by Rick, a 67 year old male retired from the telecommunications industry who began having bilateral thigh pain and inability to walk. He was diagnosed by his doctor of having spinal stenosis and told he could try physical therapy but may need surgery. We also speak with Susan Wood, his physical therapist who made some observations of his history and his physical examination which didn't match up with the classic stenosis presentation. Rick and Susan recount his response to the care Susan gave him and we hear how he's doing now, months later, pain free and nearly back to full function. This week on MCF!
