MRI results
The results from the MRI was that I have a couple of bulging discs, something called an "annular tear," in one of the disks, and a little arthritis of the lower spine which is what "degenerative disc disease" is. I have another appt. this week with a different doctor, a spine specialist on Thursday. I think I have problems with my neck too because I've been getting numbness and tingling in my right arm and hand and also my ear, which probably means my "occipital nerve," at my upper neck is pinched. I've also had a lot of headaches which I don't get much. I will probably have more x-rays and maybe another MRI done. I've been really worried about this and not sleeping well, probably from anxiety. This will be the last I talk about this today because it makes me have more anxiety the more I talk about it. Just please keep me in your prayers. Thanks.

Hey Sarah! What is going on with you? You need to call me some time, so that we can catch up. I am having some of the same problems. I am actually going to start seeing a Physical Therapist next week for neck pains and headaches, ear pain, numbness, etc. that I have had the past 2 years. All of which is probably related to my neck. Let me know what is up with you. 706-776-2879
