Hope things work out well for you Pam, I have been thinking of you since i first read about you when i joined last week. I was glad to hear someone mention the discogram. I had one a month ago. One neuro said my mri showed no problems...so i went to another for a second opinion. He said the mri showed 2 bad discs C5-6 and C6-7 but wanted a discogram. the procedure wasn't too bad, but after...
...I was laid up for 4 days...the ache was bad, but the shooting pains were unbearable. it showed both discs were very bad indeed, and i go for acdf on feb. 28th. He says i can go back to work in 2-3 weeks, because he is going to use a "ton of metal"...I am a printer (hence the cute name) and do heavy lifting and much arm movement.
Thanks for listening, Dave
P.S. I am not a sports fan, but since it is superbowl weekend..here goes...
GO (insert name of team of your choice here)!!!!
