    good luck I hope they can get you taken care of

    I just had one last week
    after 3 years I had another MRI done lower back pain non stop 24/7 cant complain its hurts of course [xx(] and sucks .
    but compared to some on here its a walk in the park
    I am to see a pain management in the new future mostly to get my pain meds pulled from my normal doctor to help his standings with big brother monitoring how much the doctors are handing out .
    this time I had them tell me wants gong on , they did tell me I have a bulging disc and well arthritis ( some from of it )
    I hope they can do better or have some suggestions to help me out also

    Well good luck to you. Hopefully they figure out what it is and can fix it without operating

    It seems the have some really good back/spine people overseas. I have been reading about lower back pain that sometimes causes issues and pain in the abdomen, etc. Most doctors around here tell you if you are having lower back and abdominal pain, you have appendicitis, kidney stones, cancer, or something along those lines. It seems too many doctors over here don't realize or accept the fact that the spine and many nerves for the abdomen, are very close(seems like common sense to me), which means that both the back and abdomen can be affected by something as simple as a slipped disc, or swelling.

    The reason I bring this up, is because I have been dealing with something similar to this. My chiropractor actually thinks it may be what's causing my IBS. I'm not sure if I would go that far, but the adjustments do seem to tame it down, along with helping my lower back and shoulder blade pain from work.
