Thank you, it does help. I have an appt with a neurologist mid jan, so I'm trying to prepare myself beforehand with knowledge. I am in quite severe pain and am taking narcotics for it, however all these mild and moderate's are concerning to me. Is this basically like sorry your getting old type things? Does this look like surgery will be required, for any of these issues. After 4 years I don't think any of these problems will go away on their own, or is it more of a lets give you drugs till it gets worse. Thanks again for your time.
