Default Hello Jennifer

Hello, and I am so sorry you are going through all the pain with your body. It isn't in your mind and your MRI does show some abnormal findings. Do see another doctor, neurologist surgeon, or orthopedic surgeon, for another opinion. these symptoms are not in your head. You may have a combination of issues, cervical, lumbar, and some type of neuropathy. The pain the the arms and fingers is from cervical. L down effects the legs. The best thing you can do to help yourself is to look up each work in your MRI that you do not understand and learn the terminology. That way when the doctor goes to discuss it with you, you will have the ability to understand a bit better. By the time I got to my last fusion, I had quite an education. I do wish you all the best. I hope you can find a helpful resolution to make your life easier. ginnie
