I do not believe anyone deserves the pains
and complications associated with bulging
disc, hernieted disc, flattened disc, or
whatever they are calling yours. It
completely stopped my life. I messed up
4 in my back and one in my neck during one
episode of injury. What happened was my
spine dislocated, and with lifting, messed
all these discs up in just a few days. I
felt them crush one by one, I heard and
felt it!!! Even the workmans comp
suggested it had "damaged my body as a
whole"
it messed up my legs, arms, all the
strength of my body, they would press on
the spinal cord and nerve roots causing
all kinds of srtrange symptoms, and no one
understood it at all.
Email me and I will offer any suggestions
I might have

Sorry about your pains buttons. I have
undergone two surgeries for deteriorating
discs, I wish you the best of luck, and be
as informed as you can when you go see
the ns. Spineuniverse.Com has a section
on your condition, great info and you may
find something you would like to ask the
Dr.
