Hi! I did a quick search and have some knowledge about the body and medical lingo.
Here is what I was able to figure out...
facet disease = wear and tear on the facet joints of your spine similar to osteoarthritis....the pain with this is going to be similar to a herniated disc
This means that the cartilage in your spine has been compromised either through wear and tear or trauma.
The words "unremarkable" are a good thing. This means that nothing is wrong with that part.
Cysts happen...they're part of being alive and are treatable.
The words bulging means something is quite swollen. This could be a result of the facet disease and your doctors will tell you what the best option for treatment is.
You could ask for a referral to a pain clinic to get the pain managed with the least amount of pain killers as possible, if you are worried about the ramifications of them.
I hope that this helps.
