[QUOTE="kirks5oh, post: 15504702, member: 23235"] You haven't even had an MRI yet? How can you know what's going on? What are your main symptoms? Back pain? Or shooting pain down one leg? Have you tried a prolonged course of anti-inflammatories and core strengthening? I mean prolonged---not a half-assed "college try". The chiros are good for an initial look, but if your symptoms are prolonged despite what I've mentioned, then you need to try epidural shots through an actual spine specialist. In other words, you see a spine surgeon, who gets an MRI, tells you exactly what's going on, and orders a series of injections to see if that works. Despite what you'll hear most vocal people say (people who have ended up having surgery), many times the injections can calm the nerve down and the bulging disc that is irritating the nerve regresses enough to give you lasting relief. Use the surgery as your last resort and get two opinions from two different surgeons who are NOT in the same medical group. The surgery is most successful in treating the pain radiating down the legs. [/QUOTE]
