Quite a lot of wear and tear in the lumbar and cervical regions. Some disk bulges, arthritis, loss of disk height etc. But in their opinion, nothing can be seen compressing any nerves that may be causing my pain. Still, I know my back is doing some kind of number on me. The pain, especially in the lumbar area gets so bad sometimes, I can hardly walk.

Oh, I just wanted to add that I'm wishing you the best of luck with the genetic testing....let us know how your making out!
