Congrats on your guys initial results and I wish you the best continued success

I'm wondering about Hector's MRI images on your blog. I noticed that the L1-L2 disc seems to appear quite dark. Did Dr.Clavel mention anything about this disc appearing dehydrated and if it may be threatening, Although it doesn't appear to be herniated or bulging?

I have actually very similar MRI as your future hubby (congrats on that too by the way) with annular tears on L5-S1 and L4-L5 but my L2-L3 is very dehydrated with no herniation or bulging also.

Thanks for sharing your story, helps me out loads
