Not sure if any of you know this but my back is wrecked.(im sure a couple know) Been messed up for years. Ive gone to the doctors numerous times and and got numerous xrays. But the doctors always shrugged it off as "muscle spasms" and sent me on my way with a prescription that did nothing. Well I got a new doctor in November and recently a friend of my had back surgery. I told him my story and he told me I needed an MRI. So I went to my doctor and told him I wanted and MRI of my back. He says okay and yells for the nurse to schedule Mr.Huffer for an MRI. Then he asks if I need any drugs, (okay, he said meds but I heard drugs :P) I just say sure. He asks what Ive taken and I tell him flexeril and it does nothing. Then he says naproxen, I reply ohhh no!. That stuff gives you depression and thoughts of crazy spoon. So anyways the nurse asks me why I need the MRI. I tell her my backs jacked up. She calls me about an hour later saying that my insurance won't approve an MRI until after Ive taken xrays. D: okay no problem. I take the xrays, and it takes damn near 2 weeks to get the results back. Then the nurse is looking at them when I call for the results and shes like there doesn't appear to be anything wrong... I KNOW THAT, That's WHY IVE BEEN WANTING THE MRI?! oh, wee'll contact your insurance. Well Saturday in the mail I got my approval for my MRI. I called today and my appointment is Thursday after work. The lady said I will be inside the machine for 30-45 mintutes O_O

Im just happy im getting farther in this process. You can't imagine the pain Im constantly in.
sorry for the rant

TLDR; My backs fudgeed up.

back pain is so debilitating
Good luck with the MRI. I couldn't imagine staying still that long. I know you can ask to be sleeping during it or something so you don't get freaked out like my grandfather who started screaming 5 mins into it.
