Question: Technique Axial T1 Axial T2 Sagittal T1 Sagittal T2 Sagittal ST1R

Finding There is mild straightening of the cervical spine with no obvious osteophytosis The vertebral body heights marrow and signal intensity are preserved There is no abnormality noted in the disc

The spinal cord appear normal in thickness and signal intensity However a soft tissue mass with intensity consistent with that of measuring 31cmx21cm in size is noted at the level of C5 to C7  vertebrae probably a lipoma

The adjacent facetal joint appear indistinct

At C2C3 C3C4 C4C5 C5C6 and C6C7 showed normal  disc hydration with an unremarkable ligamentum flavum  and neuroforamina however the loss of distinctiveness of the articulating bones of the facetal joint at the level of C5C6 and C6C7 is highly suspicious of early onset degenerative changes probably post traumatic 

Conclusion No evidence of cervical fracture or features of osteochondrosis

CT spine is advised in view of suspicious facetal indistinctiveness
Answer: I have been experiencing tension headaches and anxiety because I have been under allot of stress I carried out a ct scan and the conclusion is that there is a hypo density of my left thyroid and I dont understand what that means but all I can say is I have been having a lot of anxiety mood swings and fears of the worse for no reason it is like I am expecting something to happen that does not happen and sometimes it feels like I want to faint but I dont faint I dont know what to do or if the thyroid is responsible for all this because I am a healthy person normally I dont smoke drink I am into sports aswell
