I have multi level bulging disks that are causing severe muscle spasms. As they cannot identify a single disk that is causing the problem they do not want surgery (and neither do I). I have done PT, am currently on Soma, Toridol and vicoden. I use a tens unit to get through my work day. Has anyone had any luck with the cortisone epidural? Is there anything I should know before doing it? By the way, I am 23 and in good health otherwise.

for the past few years i have, on occasion, had dizzy spells where everything goes black in which i have to either grab on to something quick or lay down on a couch before i collapse on the floor. the feeling always goes away after a few seconds. this year however seems to be by far the worst and i am having spells often almost everyday. i have no idea why i have this problem because i believe i live a pretty healthy lifestyle by eating the right foods, drinking lots of water, and exercising daily. does anybody know what's wrong with me?

For the last couple of weeks, my right hand has been expectantly going numb. Starting last night, my hand seems to immediately start to fall asleep and go numb as soon as I lay down. If I DO fall asleep, I wake up and my hand is numb and tingly, and there is pain going all the way up into my elbow. Any ideas on what this could be or how to fix it??? Im afraid I won't be able to sleep tonight because every time I lay down I wake up in excruciating pain.

So.. I bumped my head on this huge metal sign while walking down the street trying to get my gloves on. I was wearing this thick wool hat so when I hit my forehead I didn't get any lumps or redness, but the thing wiggled like crazy and my teeth knocked together and now I have a headache in the back of my head. So.. what I'm asking.. could this be because of the bumping and how can I fix it or prevent anything more serious prior or even without going to the dr's? thx

I've had a number of what I call mental lapses - I'll give you an example. The other day I decided to drive to the local Arts Center. Then I was in downtown wondering why I was there and trying to figure out what I was down there for, and then I remembered that I was going to the Arts Center - This has happened a number of times and I'm not sure what to do about it.

I've been in therapy due to a car accident. The pain did not start immediately when the accident occurred, but rather during therapy sessions. I can't lift my leg to get in the car. I have to go in backward with knee bent to get over the threshold. The pain is getting worse. I am having pain now when sitting. Padded chairs last longer, hard chairs I can stand for only minutes. Pain lessens when laying flat or standing. When laying flat I couldn't lift my own leg to 90% angle. Some sort of mind pain block, as my husband could get it to do so. However, once the leg was up at a 90% angle, there was only a small amount of aching pain, not intense. Upon lowering; however, he accidentally dropped it the last 4 inches or so, I nearly went solar. Rotation of the hip out is also incredibly painful. X-rays of pelvis, hip, and upper thigh, show no fractures, nor arthritis (beyond mild degenerative). Help! What in the world is this? My doctor doesn't appear to be in a hurry to do anything.

I have recently been through a really difficult time in my life and the doctor has but me on the sick for stress and anxiety and a little depression that I am sure to come out of on my own but.. I just have no motivation...
I'm not working because of all this and can't sleep great.. but then in the morning I have no motivation to get up and face the day.. or wnating to get ready and go out to see friends which is something I normally love to do... I just have no confidence at the moment and a huge lack of motivation... As I say, My 'get up and go' has got up and gone...!

How do I slowly bring myself out of this and get more motivated again?
