Default I need help understanding my MRI.

I had a MRI done a few days ago, and for starters the doctor really scared me because he called me in to review my results. Some of you might not think that is a bad thing but this is my third one in 8 years and I have never been called back in. I am only 26 and have had back problems sine i was 15 it seems that it doesn't get any better. So now I have these new results and they weren't explained very well and it has went from the doc never reviewing them with me to calling me in and wanting to send me to a specialist.

So here are the findings:
Narrowing of the left lateral recess and forminal narrowing due to unconverterbral prominence. Narrowing of the left lateral and to a lesser degree the left exit foramen at C3-4. This appears to more likely be related to the left uncoverterbral joint than protruding disc.

T11-12 Shallow posteriot protrusion contacting anterior surface of the distal cord. T11-12 small posterior protrusion resulting in effacement of the CSF space anterior to the distal cord.

L1-2 Minimal central disc protrusion posteriorly.
