Jeff, thanks for the advice.
That is probably my gameplan moving forward.
Since my current pain is manageable yet chronic, i have some time.
L3-L4 has been bulging for 13 years or so.
I really have to investigate how bad my facet joints are at the lower levels even though Peterson told me they weren't bad.
This steep sacral slope thing has me concerned and i'm going to pick both Clavel and Dr. B's brains on it.
My concerns are the longer i wait the more my facet joints will worsen.
