3 bulging dics...

I was in a car accident last June. I had numbness in my left arm and leg and was in a neckbrace for about 3 wks. Since I've been having really bad headaches/migranes and I can't turn my head all the way to the left. I went to an appt with a neurosurgeon on Friday that was set up by the insurance company. Apparently I wasn't told about 3 bulging discs in my neck. They said they discounted it bc the scan I had a few days prior didn't show anything. However the fact that they are leaving out is that the first scan I was laying down..there was no pressure on my spine. The one that showed the bulging discs, I was sitting up in an upright MRI with pressure on my spine. I was wondering if anyone else expereinced any of the things I have and if my problems with the headaches and loss of movement in my neck are bc of the bulging discs. Any info would be great. TY
