I already have herniated disks at L3-L4 and L4-L5 and have been trying different treatments for months…?
I’ve already been through PT (which made it worse), I have lifts in my left shoe and just got a cortisone/lidocaine injection 2 weeks ago….Last night I was bending forward to pick something up and I felt a “pop” in my lower back (right where I’ve been having the problems). I immediately went to the ER in excruciating pain. The docs didn’t do any x-rays, instead gave me 2 rounds of Demoral and sent me home with Vicodin released with “sciatica”. Now I have to wait to see my orthopedic doctor…..any ideas until then?
I am surprised that herniated discs at L4 and L5, now sudden onset pain they did not do any MRI, let alone x-ray? When you were diagnosed with the disc problems did they do a MRI?
