Hey fellow ignorer. Mine was a spinal tumor.
Schwanoma?
Oh no I got to be real special. It was leiomyosarcoma. I was a paramedic for years fell down some stairs once with a patient when I was younger. Had some torn muscles and all that. Went on with life for 30 years with "a sore back" all the time. Oh well. Young and dumb right. One day I kicked a kitchen chair leg passing by. Turns out I couldn't feel my foot...or the the other one either. Within 6 months I was paralyzed chest down. They chopped it out and I got major radiation treatments that will probably give me cancer before I die. Fun times.
Moral of the story...get your shit checked out.
