We have tried everything and nothing has worked.My doctor has ordered and Discogram to see the injured discs that I have in my neck and try to figure out why I have so much pain.My doctor is also discussing surgery where he will remove the bad disc and fuse my back.I can't take the pain much more but I am scared to do this.Please help!

I've had a Discogram and they are not fun. You're going to have to go through it to give the doctor that answer they need. You might feel very nauseous during the procedure when they hit on certain nerves. After the procedure ask for an ice pack to place on the injections sites to help reduce inflammation And pain. when you get home stay in bed. The medication they give you is very strong and it's easy for you to become weak and possibly pass out. its best if you can have someone stay with you for the rest of the day and possibly overnight.
Unfortunately you sometimes have to go through hell to get to heaven.
Best wishes,
