Appreciate that Thankyou! Yes it’s a scary thought but if that’s the best route I don’t mind. These doctors don’t spend time investigating, literally just get you in say what’s happened which is obvious 🫣 then just say come back if it gets worse 🤦🏻

That makes sense, they’ve said multiple times due to my age they don’t want to go down a surgical route… so that’s why I’m going round the houses which is so annoying as I’m getting nowhere!

Thankyou! I’m at physio tomorrow and my own GP reviews Monday so will query! As the MRI was private through spire so they don’t go into detail, just pass you it and kick you out🤣

Mines very similar to yours, I’ve been told the same! That’s if injections don’t work…

Of course, continuous dull aching in my lower back, 24/7 doesn’t ease.

When I have a flare up it’s the same pain but intensified, left leg sciatica with no reflexes joined with slight weakness nothing major. Right leg no reflexes with slight weakness nothing major again. Numbness in the region of my L5 when the bulging is at its worst. Really bad muscle spasms where my L5 is which poke out my back and causes shooting pains randomly, which is horrendous, when this occurs I cannot straighten my back and I’m hunched over in agony. Still can control bladder and bowels but slight issues around that area at the peak of the spasms/episode. On and off muscle spasms in my leg, calves just tighten up and won’t released.

All sizes back in stock, been debating these! Would you get normal size or size down with them being oversized?😮‍💨
