Helps to have psychology in the mix too (maybe not in this case, but overall).

Bring your comments. Each one of these threads has "you're a pill head" guy and the opposite guy who mocks the OP for being a bitch when it comes to getting meds.

Prolly bulging discs and bone spurs like everyone else in the world over 25. Not always the cause for the pain

I assume it wasn't normal. Maybe a little calcification on the T1-2, slight impingement at C3 consistent with his age.

How's that?

Your Bio says your an ER nurse. Are you a real life ER Nurse and asking the OT for advise on Pain Management Centers?

Cervical MRI shows bulges with minimal compression at c5-c5, c6-c7. These were there in 2003 as well just somewhat larger and not diagnostic. Pain and symptoms were opposite side. Thoracic shows fat boy at a desk back. Small bulge at t11.

I use a back roller and it appears to help but these are short fixes.

And you take Advil every day.

Maybe you should switch to Alleve, drink herb tea, lose 15 pounds, start walking more, and meditate?

So you haven't had a MRI in 11 years?

I suggest you see a PCP, have a MRI ordered and schedule an apt with a Neuro with your film in hand. Let them determine what is the best treatment for your pain.

Damned right. Because all you ever see in an ER setting are the patients who come from pill mills or have been "fired" by their doc. Those who have managed everything poorly. Never see the guy who says Dr. X helped me tremendously. In addition I used to know where to score pills from weak docs or outright pill mills. Not looking for that shite.

Then what the hell are you looking for?

Sounds to me you're looking to score some pills without all the hassle.
