Hello, everybody. I'm new here and was just wondering if anyone could give me a bit of advice about what to do if my G.P won't refer me to a Spinal Consultant after three years of having spinal problems. They referred me to a physio, gave me anti-inflammatories and later x-rayed me. The results of my x-ray showed lax ligaments that are not holding my spinal disks together properly resulting in too much movement and in turn degenerating the disks and bones a lot. I haven't found exercising to be very effective, if anything it makes it worse and also sitting or standing for a long time hurts. I'm not sure what the treatments would be for this particular condition and am worried about not knowing what is wrong with me. Thanks for reading this and for any comments or help that you can give.
