Hi Julie,

Just wanted to send some hugs your way . I am glad you finally got somewhere on your dx.

I have TOS which is realted to neck and nerve problems in the arms and hands.

But I also recently saw a spine doc because the neck pain persists. He also found what is called a subluxed disc in my neck. My cervical MRI did not show much but my EMG nerve test did. So he did special x-rays with my neck flexed in different positions. Thats when they were finally able to see how it moved and only in those positions would a vertebrae compress the disc.

So while you wnat to see the spine doc try to pay attention to positions and pain so you can tell them. And make sure to ask them to do some tests that show how your neck moves because sometimes laying flat in an MRI can be misleading.

Keep us posted.
