Thanks for the pointers. When I was injected in the facets my doctors were going to do a ryzo but because of my negative reaction they said I was a poor canidate. They were also contemplating doing a fusion without removing my ad's. I have tried core strenghthening and stretches but it dosent help with the nerve pain. I really would prefer to stay away from any drugs as I dont like long term medications.
I am currently in a heavy lifting type of job and am also contemplating moving to a desk job as a last option. I was also contemplating acupuncture but am very scepticle. My surgeon has told me that I am not a home run patient and I feel he would just rather get rid of me as a patient. Hes a great surgeon but a terrible doctor. And as a final question what does a emg actually do? Thanks Chris.
