Guest guest Posted December 11, 2003 Report Share Posted December 11, 2003 Hi Vicki, Did the Dr. order only a lumbar MRI? The symptoms you describe sound similar to my pain and I have a herniated disk in my cervical spine. Out of curiosity are you left-handed?

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2003 Report Share Posted December 12, 2003 Thank you, I will ask my dr. if he will do that as well, because I feel it is way more then just in my lower back. I know how pain can travel, but this is just to much. It is so hard to keep up with my baby who is 6 months now and at times I can't even pick him up and he is crying for me. It just breaks my heart. I feel like a bad mother, I hurt so bad but from the outside I look fine, although at times I walk funny, and moan a lot from time to time. My 18 year old son helps me a lot when I have apt.'s and can't take my baby because it hurts to much, my 7 year old, now she tries so hard and she is a great help too, but I feel so bad because she needs to be playing and I need to be playing with her, but instead I look over at her and she is bouncing the baby up and down saying it's OK mommy is right there. Now my 15 year old daughter, well she is boy crazy and Mom makes her stay home and she just hates being here and she tells me I am the one who had the baby not her. That is true but piss me off so much. I have been a signal mother all there lives, and been there for them and to hear that come from your child's mouth when in turn you need the help more they seem to forget and not care. I try to tell them that I am trying to get better so I can go back to work, but right now Mom needs their help too. I also feel very lucky to have kids here to help me, because there are others out there with know one at all to help them. I feel the stress from being out of work, being behind 3 months on my bills, and the normal problems that comes with having kids, puts a lot on my back too. Look at me the baby is a sleep and I am just going on like you all don't have anything to do but to hear me chat. Well, thank you all for answering my questions. I will ask my dr.for some more MRI's. As they say we know our bodies better then anyone right! Thank You And God Bless You All Happy Holidays Love Vicki Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 12, 2003 Report Share Posted December 12, 2003 > Could this be from the L5 S1 bulgding disk, or could it be something else. Has anyone felt like this before, if so what could it be < I would go back to the doc and ask for an MRI of the neck. I get a lot of pressure and pain from my neck that radiates with burning into my left shoulder blade and increased headaches. A Cat scan showed bone spurs and a narrowing disc in the C5/6 area.

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2003 Report Share Posted December 12, 2003 I just want to thank you all so much for just being here, it really helps the pain believe it or not for me, just knowing that I can say how I am feeling and you can relate instead of looking at me like " oh, your fine just get some rest and it will all go away. " Yea right there the ones that went away and the pain is still here. It helps so much knowing that I am not alone, but it also hurts that so many people out there have to hurts so much and there isn't always much out there to help. It is a help to me knowing that I am not alone in this world of pain in our backs ect... But I will keep you all in my prays. thanks again Vicki Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 12, 2003 Report Share Posted December 12, 2003 vicki, we can relate to how you feel people out here not only have children but have grandchildren as there own as i do and belive me when my grand son and youngest grand daughter ask why i can't even push her on her push toy yeah that is heart felt not to mention heart breaking . so yeah we can absolutly relate to what your going through. and yes it is breath taking to hear your teen say i didn't have the child it cuts soooo deep. thus is why we often ask why did this have to happen to me.!. i can't speak for all but i know some of us out here wonder that very thing alot. its just not fair. and i don't care if they do say life isn't fair this pain is not fair. well just a note to say hi and yes were right there with you sharing your heart ach and pain well spiritualy anyway.....and tell your fam. we understand them as well it is tough for all concerned, god bless....Larry Re: Pain under shoulder left blade > Thank you, I will ask my dr. if he will do that as well, because I feel it is > way more then just in my lower back.
