Yay back problems.....seems as though, from a CT scan results, I have lumbar stenosis, deteriorated discs, arthritis and 2 herniated discs in me back.....and, to top it off, mum's back in the hospital, 2nd time in 3 weeks, with chest pains....

 

*hirples off to the recliner and heating pad...*

 

Have an MRI on my back scheduled for this coming Monday....a scan my doctor wants, to see what kind of mess my back is really in, before proceeding farther with any stronger pain meds or therapy....

Hiya Biggy

 

Hope & your Mum are doing ok

 

 

:cheer:

Mum's doing okay, Tess, and me back is one right royal mess.....post MRI on my thoracic and lumbar spine, and a visit to a back specialist, I have one nice little litany of things going on in my back...I have arthritis, bone spurs, deteriorated vertebral discs, 3 herniated discs in my lumbar spine causing spinal stenosis, curvature of the lumbar spine, and an inflamed sacroiliac on the right side....was prescribed meloxicam as an anti-inflammatory, which caused me a nasty rash, was also prescribed tramadol for pain, which made the rash worse....was prescribed 800 MG ibuprofen in place of the meloxicam....was also prescribed methocarbamol as a muscle relaxer, which isn't causing me any problems....back specialist has me currently going through physical therapy for me back, in an effort to reduce the pain/inflammation...if the therapy doesn't seem to be helping, then injections in the back are next.....option of very last resort would ne surgery, which I'm really REALLY hoping to avoid....
