(8,576 posts)46. I had this
I finally succumbed to facing it, after years of chiropractic, acupuncture, advil, tequila, etc. Got an MRI, took to chiropractor, she said, "I'd find a good surgeon." I did. Problem solved. I had heard so many fearful stories about it, but the next morning when I got out of bed the pain was gone. (New pain during recovery, of course, but quite manageable.) Now I'm back in the garden and no advil required! Tequila only for a celebration, not a lifestyle!

Damn. As someone who broke his spine twice, I "feel your pain." I hope you have good docs that get you

Stop second-guessing the medical pros and get some help! Even if you have to call an ambo.

Dear LuckyCharms. Go to doctor and have it examined. They will give you a sedative for the scan.
