An Oldpark woman who suffers from a rare spinal condition is campaigning for an upright scanner to be made available on the island of Ireland.
Margaret Reeves (59) was diagnosed with spondylotic myelopathy after waiting 23 years for a diagnosis.
Margaret’s story began in 1995 when she suffered a bad fall and was later diagnosed with a fractured vertebra in her neck, after a visit to the Mater. Days later, she was referred to the Royal Victoria Hospital where the pain she was suffering was put down to an extra congenital rib that she was born with.
