We are still waiting on the MRI results of your lower back.
We do have the results from the neck though.
It does show significant degenerative changes for which Dr Badau says you should see a neurospine specialist in follow up.
There is also a question of some "signal findings" in the upper cervical spine, the radiologist recommends a repeat MRI but with contrast. Dr Badau advised we can order this now or wait for the neurospine specialists input. Will also let you know as soon as we have the lumbar spine results back.
Note:not sure this is good or bad.Wish me luck

Wishing you the best. My neck and back is always messed up because my spine is out of place and in order to straighten my back I would have to go to a cardiologist. My boyfriend does massage my back from time to time to give me some relieve.

Hope you can get an appointment with that neurospine specialist quickly and get some answers. Is the pain you're experiencing from the car accident you had?

Degenerative changes usually means old age. Don’t know how a young whippersnapper like you would have that!

Do not worry, it is just the age catching up and you have to catch up with it. Relax and enjoy. I hope everything will be fine.

@amadeo If they are booking you in then there has to be hope.
I remember my Dad was referred to a specialist but he was very ill, not old, only about 71, but he never got the call and I used to tell him that he might just be a patient to some, but to a few of us he was everything.

Good luck! I am sure it`ll be okay. At your age you should expect something to be worn down.

Good luck. Having back pain gets very old very quickly.
