Hi ~ Do you have the MRI report? If you do, will you post it here so we can take a look at it? That way, we'll be better able to advise you. Without seeing it, it's hard to give you any advice.

If you don't have it, ask the place where you had it done to give you a copy of the MRI report. NOT the films, just the REPORT, okay? Then we can advise you. God bless & take care. Hugs, Lee

Default Hi noclue

absolutely get an MRI, Post here as Leesa is great at helping you to understand it. Park yourself in the emergency room if you have to. When pain is bad enough to drive you over the edge, you need to get some help. Don't hesitate to go. Nobody should blow you off. To me you need a new doctor who is going to address your concerns seriously. If this doctor you are currently seeing has not ordered an MRI, that is shameful. Workmens comp can be difficult to deal with. Seek another doctor who doesn't work for "their"side. Please hang in there and fight for your quality of life. Don't let one bad doctor make you feel there is no hope. I care, and so do the people on NT. ginnie
