Help
 
I have been in pain for over 3 years during which time have not had medical insurance, so for the most part until end of last year my primary has been helping me to keep under control.

I had an MRI of cervical spine results: At C3-C4 The left neural foramen demonstrates mild to moderate narrowing.
Some facet degenerrative changes are present with uncovertebral joint hypertrophy.
At C6-C7 a disc osteophyte complex is present in the posterior aspect of the C5 and C6 vertebral body as appreciated on image 8 of series 4. Right paracentral disc protrusion is present causing mild to moderate narrowing of teh right aspect of the spinal canal. The right neural foramen demonstrates mild narrowing. The left neural foramen is patent

Hi roeree, welcome.

Your doctor should explain those terms to you. We have some folks who understand some of the language on the Spine forum. You might post there.
