Spine feels like twisting

[zzwitchyzz]

I have several ruptures, DDD , but my spine literally feels like its twisting at the bottom. Im not nuts, but the pressure and pain feel like its being held at tailbone and twisted to the left, i have alot of problems on the left side, including
numbness in leg,& foot, and sometimes it just doesnt move like it should. Epidural injections gave me 4 days relief, but the symptom is still there

I picked up that ammended report yesterday and it mimics the 2005 MRI,  I am planning on getting a 2nd opinion on that, I have a disc with the films on it.
Thanks!

You should also get copies of the MRI films!  They will be available for you at your request although the hospital might charge a small fee for the copying.  HIPPA rules provide for you to obtain all  medical records (not just the transcribed report).
I am not sure why the radiologist would not read the films accurately even if there was no life-threatening emergency.  It's his license on the line ----
Utilize the advocate to get another opinion and have another radiologist review the films.
Good luck!

Ive got ruptures, specifically where- i dunno- there are several and start at top and end at bottom, lol. Painful yes! Until recently I had no insurance and getting a MRI  for a newer version from 2005 was hard, I managed to make the ER do it, and (remember im in WV-they just dont care here) the radiologist had no idea of the 2005 MRI- his reading was clear- no degenerative changes - I called patient advocate, and as of yesterday after viewing the old MRI report he ammended his- is this legal- i dunno- but he mimic'd my 2005 MRI - Im picking it up today. So if there are changes, my body says there are- I wont know for a long time again. He didnt read my MRI the advocate said because it was requested by the emergency room and he saw no life threatening emergency.????

I've got ruptured L3-L5 discs and my xray showed my tailbone about 2 cm to the left from my SI joint down.  I've gotten so fat from forced inactivity, and I can actually see my belly listing to the left.  I don't think its your imagination.  
Good luck.
