I have been having major back, leg and nerve pain and while it is much worse now... I have been dealing with the pain for about 2 years! :( I have seen a chiropractor, had a hip injection (before we knew it was my back), tried PT, had epidurals, x-rays, MRI's etc. etc!! It has been a LONG painful process! Dr. Veltri referred me to see the Spine Specialist when he came to Ida Grove and we have determines that I have Congenitive Spondylolisthesi... what?? Here is a link if you are interested in reading more about it! :) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Listhesis
Basically... this is what my back looks like...
With that being said... surgery to correct this problem is scheduled for June 5th! It was originally going to be in September, but with all of the work we did on the house I caused more slipping and my spine was resting on my bladder. If we wait, I will risk permanent bladder damage... so June 5th it is!!
