Don't wait for the dr. to reschedule. You have to be very assertive and not take no for an answer. I learned that the hard way 3 years ago. Diagnosed w/ 12mm herniation and was on bed rest for months waiting for the dr.s to sort everything out. No one can stand up for you like you.

and i have yet to see my doctor. i scheduled an appt on 10/29 but he had to cancel and yet to reschedule. my numbers are 5mm, and i am worried just like you. together maybe we can do our journey to the unknown, because i never knew about this, never heard of this until i got it. i live in denver colorado, and i have a doctor by the name of john oro, who happens to be the finest in this field, and has a chiari center in aurora which is about 15 minutes from my home.
