Bad Report from M.D.
I went to the non-surgical M.D. today who gave me the results of my MRI I had done @ 6 weeks ago. I have a tear in one of my lumbar discs that is possibly leaking into my spinal column. On Friday, the M.D. will do a set of 8 injections into my facet joints to help with pain relief. Later on, he wants to check my disc by injecting it to see if it is leaking into my spinal column. He says if it is leaking into my column, he recommends surgery for this must be taken care of.
I need a miracle. I need my OH Bama family to pray WITH me that this tear at L5-S1 will be healed. Can I depend on you for this????
Oh Jackie, I am so thankful that everything with Olivia is OK. Because of everything going on with my mom, I am not on as much, so I guess I missed that, but I have been praying for you all. I know, us mom's/wives, etc, never have time to be down or sick, but this may be the Lords way of MAKING you slow down a bit. Either way, take care of yourself and rest assured that you are prayed for.
Thank you Jan! That's it specifically! It is a central annular tear identified and at this level a bulge is present without focal herniation seen. The tear at this level extends more centrally into the nucleus pulposus....to be exact.
There is more "stuff" they found on the report...but, I am not worried about that stuff.
