Confused MRI please help me understand it

The pedicles are developmently short producing a narrow cenral canal baseline.
C/2c/3 level there is mild uncovertebral facet arthropathy causing mild right neural foraminal stenosis.
C/3c/4 level there is a small posterior disc/ osteophyte complex with mild uncovertebral and facet arthropathy causing mild cenral canal stenosis and mild bilateral neural foraminal stenosis. Cenral canal measure 9mm in AP dimension at this level
c/5c/6 level there is mild disc bulging and facet arthropathy causing mild effacement of the ventral thecal sac.
I was in auto accident in August 2012. At complete stop was rearend by someone doing roughly 55-60 mph. Hit mainly on left side of car I was front seat passenger with seat belt on. So far I have done physical therapy with very little improvement did get some movement back but not all. Done different pills antimflamitory, steriods, muscle relaxers list goes on. Did the epidural steriod injections not help with those. Now they are talking about radiofrequency rhizomy ( spelling might not be right so sorry). Also went chiropractor made pain worse. Please help me understand this and thank you happy I found this site
