oct 09 for bout for 4 weeks i had a little annoying left um cheek pain then suddenly i count walk or move went to physio then 4 weeks later had a full muscle melt down and got ambulanced to hospital were they just gave me medication n sent me home. have had mri and 2 scans of my sciatic nerve.
Now nov 2010 finally after seeing 9 differant doctors/speciallists/physios they have found a disc tear in my L5/s1.
My doctor wants me to go have an epidural then guided cortisone injections in to the site,and had told me the tear will never heal and i cant go back riding horses which was my career,told him ive been seeing a chiro and he told me to stop going as any cracking could make my tear worse
I have for the last 6 weeks been seeing a chiropractor who thinks he can heel my disc tear over time and to not have to injections,
Needing another opinion, should i stop going to the chiro? is he making it worse??
i have pain just above my left bum cheek and sumtimes my arse cheek had its own pulse,i was getting sciatica but had cortizone in my arse for that probly 8 weeks ago,they were thinking it was just that.
