View Full Version : doctor update...
I went to my PCP yesterday... turns out I have thoracic osteitis... basically my mid to uper spine is swollen. And I'm having severe muscle spasms along my spinal cord. I go in for an MRI tomorrow, and right now they have me on muscle relaxers, until they find out whats wrong. Doctor said he's very concerned because its just not normal to get back problems like that without any prior trauma, which I didnt have, obviously. He called the hospital I went to Saturday and basically raised hell with the doctor who 'claims' to have seen me, but never did. I can always rely on my doc :)

Please make sure and let us know what happens with the MRI. I'm sorry to hear about your back. I will definitely pray for you. Get well soon!!
Wow a-m you are just not having a very easy time right now.. i'm sorry about your back but glad your doctor actually did something about it... let us know how the mri goes.
I hope they figure out exactly what's going on with your back!! And I'm so happy the hospital is getting what was coming to them. Ugh I still think suing would be a great idea. Such jerks. I'm glad you're on pain killers to stop the pain!
