I had an MRI today. The explosion that was once my disc is clearly pictured. I am so depressed, I feel sick. Even with surgery, which I don't want to endure as I would be off work for six weeks (Like I have six weeks worth of money saved or there's anyone to take care of Abby or a capable doctor in Alaska !), it doesn't matter, my disc has been comprimised. I guess it would take away the pain, then I will just be lucky enough to feel my vertebrae grinding together, since at the age of 33, I have a squished disc.
