Your mri doesn't look too bad, id have an emg ordered to determine any radiculopathy in ur lumbar region. I wish u the best!1!
My doctor tells me nothing other then you have nothing .don`t see anything wrong. but here I have pain in my lumber region at times is [ chronic ] pain down my leg numbness to my toes . sitting & standing for long periods of time just agggrevates the problems more. but here he says nothing is wrong . gives me pain meds . The knee problem was taken care off. I had my surgery. now i still have problems with that area allso because it still hurts when my knee grindsl. any sitting for long periods of time . when I going to stand up it hurts like the dickens.. but, I try to bear it so much that I cry.. again that doc~s says you have arthritis. oh wait my cervical have issues too..
