Welcome to BACK/NECK PAIN and MRI Q and A

                             First off, welcome. I am BackPainGuru4U. Thank you for visiting my blog/site. Lets get right to it..
                                                                                                                              
Lumbar Spine
Cervical Spine
                                                                                                                                                                               Do you suffer from neck, mid-back, low back or even leg and feet pain? Or how about numbness, tingling or weakness in your shoulders, arms, hips or legs?  If so, you've come to the right place!!! I am here to try to help you better understand what the pain is you have and where it may be coming from.

       I have 18 years experience in the medical field and 15 years as an MRI/XRAY Technologist. I see first hand what is going on inside of you. The above pictures are just a small example of what I do on a daily basis. I see the diagnosis that your doctor writes on their scripts for you to bring and I hear what your symptoms are directly from you. Then, as I do your exam, if there are any abnormalities I can then see whats going on in side of you. I've heard these complaints and seen the results THOUSANDS of times over the years...everyday..day in..day out....., not being able to tell my patients what is wrong with them, (I'm not aloud to tell). So now, this is my way to try to give you some sound advice on you back pain or MRI exam. Now, I am NOT a doctor. I cannot give you a diagnosis, but I can give you a pretty good idea of which way too go with your symptoms. And please, ALWAYS follow your doctors word an orders. I am here simply for an EDUCATED OPINION based on scientific fact and my own personal experiences. Oh yea, I am ALSO a low back pain sufferer. My L4/5 and L5/S1 disk spaces have been completely herniated for the past 11 years. So I feel and see, exactly what you are feeling... pAiN.


             Again thank you for visiting. You may ask me any questions or describe your pain and symptoms, or ask about your MRI exam and I will give you my best educated opinion and hopefully head you in the right direction for RELIEF!!!
I will occasionally update this site to ad more features and related topics that you can interact with to better your experience and understanding on this site.  POST POST! POST!
