Thanks for your reply, Laid up doc. I have not been tested for instability, but I suppose it is possible. I go to work everyday, exercise each night, and am not on alot of medication except an occasional naproxin sodium. However if I do not do ALOT of back exercises, I can't sleep for more than 4 or so hours at night. I will make an appt with my local neurosurgeon and see what he says. The orthopedic doctor I went to several times never mentioned this. My chiropractor has never mentioned it either. I will find out.
