LouLou....yu are in LA right?

Try to go see Dr Robert bray at DISC in Marina del rey. He is also the head spine doc at St Johns spine center and doc for the LA Kings. He is the doc that in LA that most of the chiros would only let operate on them.

He has a full comprehensive team that can work together to either recommend surgery or a proactive non surgical program. His non surgical doc is Dr. Vlachos and she will likley be the first to see you.

I saw Dr Bray for a C5/6 retrolithesis and while he said I may someday need surgery they worked with me to avoid until absolutely necessary. I was also dx with TOS (thoracic outlet syndrome) which I have but was not the cause of my numbness in my thimb and index fingers on both hands. And Dr Bray was the first to actually figure out what the issue was.

If you can consult with them for a second opinion I highly recommend them
