L4-L5 DISKS

[FUZO]

ANYONE EVER HAVE ANY PROBLEMS WITH THIS DISK. A FEW MONTHS AGO I FELT SOMETHING IN MY BACK. WELL I HAD A MRI THIS MORNING AND I LOOKED AT MY DISK AND I THINK I BLEW OUT MY L4-L5. I KNEW HOW TO READ MY MRI FILMS FOR MY NECK BECAUSE MY DOCTOR SHOWED ME AND I LOOKED AT MY MRI FOR MY BACK AND THOSE DISKS DONT LOOK GOOD. I CANT BELIEVE THIS SHIT.I'M GOING TO GET EPIDERALS AND MORE TRIGGER POINT SHOTS AND I HOPE MY DOC SAYS I DONT NEED SURGERY.. WHEN THINGS ARE GETTING BETTER SHIT HAPPENS

No I dont dzone thats what is weird. Mabey it might get there but as of now the only thing that it has hindered is my abilty for my hamstrings to be flexible. Its like when I stretch my hamstrings my hams are in pain and it wont allow me to get into my deep stretch without pain. Now ive done a new stretching regimen and my flexibility is better in my hams now but it still hurts. I also can grab my foot from behind and pick nit up. Ive graduated to grabbing my ankle and streching my quad back. I used to not be able to even grab my ankle from behind and do a quad stretch. My glutes and hams and quads used to be super tight but have improved. Now like I said when I got my trigger point shots it made everything better. I could stretch without pain.But when I looked at the MRI I'm preety sure those 2 disks dont look good.



AND DAVE ITS LIKE TELLING A CRACK ADDICT TO STOP SMOKING CRACK. I HAVE TO DO WHAT I DO ITS A FITNESS ADDICTION. I KNOW I HAVE TO THROTTLE DOWN BIG TIME

^Ya baby1, thats classic disc with nerve impingment..ouch...Having bulging discs isnt always a terrible thing. Sometimes, they migrate back to where they belong. With or without treatment. Lots of different treatment options. Inversion, Spinal Decompression, etc, etc, etc

My foot also drags! Tomorrow is the lumbar epidural so I hope it helps.

The MRIs didn't show much (according to the radiologist), but the EMG did so I really don't know why the nerves are pinched. The neurologist has to read the MRIs and I know sometimes the specialist are looking for, and see, different things.

Re: L4-L5 DISKS

Well I am in the same boat. Neck is doing good then I have to go in and have hernia surgery. It sucks but I will be praying you get better soon and you are able to get your " Fix " ....
