Hello to everyone in neuro land! This is my first time with your site & I'm also newwith the whole computer thing, needles to say I'm quite over whelmed. I have been having shocking pains in my lower back, buttocks, & right leg. I am also having lower back pain, & muscle spasims. I had an MRI done that showed mild degenerative narrowing seen at L4-5 & L5-S1 discs. With mild disc bulging at same. It noted that I have small perineural cysts in the sacral nerve roots. Have done P.T. doesn't work had injecions 2x, woeked for aout a month. Neurologist done a EMG & NCS, says nerves look good. He seems to want to dismiss that it could be the cyts, I had to convense hm that I have been reading up on t myself & I strongly feel that I am on the right track so he is sending me for another MRI to see where the cyst are lcated. what should I do next ? I don't want to take medication to try to mask the problem I want to fix the problem.

So glad to find you all !!! I hopesomeone can help me out.
