Hmm. Well, all I can tell you from what you've posted is that you have bulging discs, like you said. The discs are between the vertebra and keep you from having bone on bone. They are soft tissue and when they bulge, sometimes they push on nerves, but not always.

Spinal stenosis is when the spinal canal gets narrower due to some condition or another. Your doc says it's due to arthritis -- it's probably osteoarthritis, which we get as we get older. I assume that's the kind you have since you have it at every level.

You're taking a very LOW dose of Neurontin, and I doubt it's doing you any good at all. BUT this is just MY opinion, but you're taking ALOT of Ibuprofen, and it's very hard on your stomach. You could have sudden bleeding episodes, and become anemic! You MUST be very careful with this, and watch your stools -- if you notice that your stools are black or have blood in them, CALL YOUR DOCTOR as that indicates internal bleeding. Is the Ibuprofen helping at all?

How are your pain levels? This really isn't a "serious" MRI. I wish mine looked like this. LOL I'm not minimizing your pain, believe me. I know you're hurting, but no surgeon would operate on you at this time.

If you do find a report, go ahead and post it, ok? Hugs, Lee
