Need a little helpRobert, Here is a site that shows just where on the spine T8 - T12 is. http://www.makoa.org/scimap.htm
Not sure if higher is better or worse. It just tells what parts of the body are affected. I think it also depends on how much initial damage is done by the inflammation as to how you are affected by the residual effects. My lesion was at T8 - T10. I am one of the walking wounded. Usually walk unaided in house but use cane if I am tired or under the weather. Use cane or walker outside of home. Wheelchair once in a while.
