It means you should call your doctor...
I have already seen my doctor, had an MRI (that's how I know about the brain stem. I saw my doctor today to review the results of the MRI, but he was very vague in his explanation and I left his office not knowing any more than when I walked in.
What else can I help you with?
What if your brainstem connects what two things together?
It goes between the brain and the spinal cord.
What passes through the foramen magnum?
The mandibular nerve passes through foaramen ovale of the spenoid bone. Blood passes through the foamen ovale of the heart of the fetus.
Does anything go down your spinal cord when you eat?
Yes and no. Food goes down your esophagus when you eat. But, nerves go down your spinal cord constantly.
How does a neuron sends messages to a cell?
I think the brain makes a shock and goes down to your spinal cord and goes to the cell
Why does each vertebra have a hole that goes through it?
The hole in each vertebra forms the vertebral foramen through which the spinal cord passes. This structure provides protection and support for the spinal cord while allowing for nerves to branch out from the spinal cord to different parts of the body.
Can cervical spinal stenosis which causes the thecal sac to be fully compressed around the spinal cord cause hydrocephalus?
It certainly could... long after you became a quadrplegic, though..
What kind of nerve goes from the spinal cord and bends the forearm?
The type of nerve that goes from the spinal cord to the muscle which bends the forearm is name the 'triceps branchii muscle'. This is a fairly large muscle on the back of the upper limb of one of many vertebrates. Hope this is useful! Dr. Lav
What is the difference between the dorsal root the ventral root and the dorsal root ganglion?
Ventral root is the ventral portion of spinal cord,there is no ganglion,cell body is of motor types ,cell info goes out of spinal cord of anterior horn. dorsal root is dorsal portion of spinal cord,it posses ganglion,cell body is of sensory types,information goes into spinal cord posterior horn
What is the response caused by spinal cord interpreting an impulse from sensory receptor?
The only response by the spinal cord is not an interpretation but a reflex. A sensory impulse comes in and at the cord a reflexive arc occurs taking information to muscles or glands. The brain does the interpretation. You touch a hot stove and that info goes to the spinal cord which causes a reflexive action where the muscles move the hand away. All that happens before the brain gets an "incident report".

Where is the auditory nerve located?
Inside the skull. It is a "cranial nerve" (thus not from the spinal cord) and goes directly from the brain to the inner ear.
How do you feel texture with your fingers?
There are sensory neurons on your fingers and all over your body, which then goes to your interneuron in your spinal cord, then it sends a message to your brain.
