Found out what my MRI said when I visited my doctor today! Disc bulges @ C4-5 (1-2mm) & C5-6, C6-7 levels (both 2-3mm). The only solution we talked about is neck traction.
Not sure about a lot of things:
> how this physically hurts me
> how long they've been bulging
> if this will count as predisposition thus, docking points in my Rating for WC.
> will traction get my discs back to normal?

As always, I am able to form these questions within 3 hours of my doctor visit. Why is that??

Thursday are they saying your TOS is not really TOS but a pinched nerve
OMG has to be a WC DOC most all of us TOSers have Cervical disc problems or an X-tra rib they are just spreading the BullSH>t around

Dabbo I am still pluggin along always good seeing you around

Victoria you just keepthat cold and snow up there... we hit 20 f and had 5" of snow but true weather has yet to arrive

I would love tomake another trip down to flordia, however money is very tight athe moment though say TY for the invite

Unto all GOD BLESS and may GOD be with the country with the change of power in the White House

Oh Mark I just saw this...my heart goes out to you and your family. My prayers will include you all and hope that you are able to cope with the loss of your family member. I remember all too well the pain and can say it does get easier but you never ever forget the pain or the loss. Again my condolences!
much love and many hugs,
Victoria, Charlie(my dog) and Leonid(my cat) we all send our love
