Tina here was born with what is called Sryinx of the spinal cord. Syringomyelia (SM)
(Sear-IN-Joe-My-E-Lee-Uh), or "SM", is a chronic disorder of the spinal cord which consists of the formation of a syrinx (a pocket of cerebral-spinal fluid sometimes referred to as a cyst, hydromyelia, or syringohydromyelia) inside the spinal cord cavity. The syrinx may expand and elongate as it encroaches on the spinal cord and can easily cause deterioration of the nerves.
SM is sometimes progressively degenerative and typically has a slow onset, however, symptoms can very easily rapidly progress due to strain or by trauma to the spine. It can easily yield very painful neurological symptoms of varying intensities and at varying times. In fact, most patients with SM are quickly dismissed as being psychosomatic.
