After 3 years of going back and fourth with my GP, multiple MRI scans x rays the lot. My GP explained all of my symptoms which by the sound of it where pretty bad hence the pain Ive been in the past 9 years. I felt like i didn't have a say in what treatment i was able to get, im at the point where the pain is disrupting me at work and at home. I was told to do physio but after 2/3 months of this i still struggle to even do any of the workouts due to the fact my back is in excruciating pain.
I also noticed when they looked at my MRI results they left out 3 of the problems associated with my back so i didn't get to talk about those at all. Also since the MRI scans Ive been sent down to A&E with Spasms in my back so i would have thought i'd need an updated MRI where Ive done damage over the past 2 years since the last one.
