hi weeb,

i've got 2 discs. one at C6-7 and L something.
i had the lumbar disc injected a few x's because i was having terrible back pain. could hardly stand at the sink to do dishes and bending was awful.

it took 3 sets but really worked well. it was done by a pain specialist under floroscopy.

my C spine disc is pressing on my cord. i've seen a neurosurgeon and had it evaluated every yr. he doesn't think my sx's are severe enuf to warrant surgery.

from a C spine disc my dr would look for bad neck pain and numbness and pain running down my arms.

i used to worry about but don't anymore. i have it assessed and go by what my dr thinks. basically they attribute the sx's to MS.
