I have to get another MRI on my back again. I hope in 1 way he finds something wrong with my back so he can finally fix my back right this time. The other doctor had me on the operating table last year and had me cut open and then said it was too risky for him to finish. So he has sent me to a specialist. I have had back problems since I was married in 1978. And 2 back surgeries in 2005 with me catching Ecoli and being septic and out of it in a coma for 45 days. I will let you all know whats going on if you are interested.

Back pain is miserable. I hope they get to the bottom of this and find some way to help you. Maybe physical therapy is worth a try?

Just got dismissed from therapy last month. Didn't work, ( 6 weeks of it) I guess I'm just stuck with back pain for life if this new doctor can't fix it with surgery which is our next step.

Well the MRI did go ok but my doctor and I looked at them and he said my back & right are a mess so Aug 7th I will have my first of 6 injections in my back. My insurance approved 6 injections and is good till October if I need more which I feel I would. I really don't want surgery again but this time it wouldn't be as bad as the first 2 in 2005.
