A veteran who underwent a leg amputation also complained of lower and mid-back pain at the time of surgery. He returned to the VA hospital for severe spinal pain, incontinence and numbness, and required stronger medications. Doctors first obtained a lumbar instead of thoracic spine MRI, which was indicated. Several days after being admitted, he was diagnosed with a neurological abscess in the spine, and had surgery.
