A lil Back Update From the Doc

Well my MRI shows that I have several bulging disks that have tears in them. So I have to go to a pain managment clinic and do what i can to try and avoid any sort of surgery. After the pain is under control I plan to get back into physical therapy.. I might consider a different plac though.. Im not sure yet. I was just so embarassed being at the last place.. Its embarassing that I cant do what they are telling me.. she was checking me for weakness and different things and I could hardly do what she was asking me.. and I was crying cuz it hurt so bad. Well and then my diagnosis was just sciatica.. since we hadnt done the MRI yet.. so now they atleast know what they are working with. I had to stop phys therapy cuz I would get a spinal migrane that would last for 4 days after doing my exercises.. so hopefully the pain managment will help me get thru it. I have a consultation on Wed with the pain doc.. and they plan to start epidural injections and such asap. Thats the news so far!
