Hi, I often have pain and spasms along the upper back, traps, medial scapula.
I was led on a merry chase by some docs dismissing it as spondylitis (cervical disc issues etc). A couple of doctors noted this was a misdiagnosis and it was probably "something else" - finally one doctor noted it was NTOS.

Just to be sure I was reading through my stuff to make sure I didnt miss anything, when I went back to my original reports, taken after my accident which started the issue

my MRI report states that

C6-C7: Diffuse disc bulge with impression on thecal sac. No focal root compressions, no extension into the foramina.

So does this mean its not a disc bulge issue but probably an entrapment issue like Thoracic Outlet Syndrome? Since my problems started after a whiplash injury to the neck.

The above seems to suggest (to my eyes) that its not from the disc but something else.
