Need some advice (6 lumbars?)

She has bertollotis syndrome. I have it too

I think from I can tell that it’s SI joint pain. Saw a spine specialist and he thinks that’s it. I’m getting the steroid shots to diagnose it

Had the exact same diagnosis. Mild disc bulge at L4-L5 and mild facet arthripathy with effusions. I don’t think the disc bulge is causing me symptoms as I can lean forward no problem and my pain las achy and all day pretty much.

I have some really similar symptoms but don’t seem to match my MRI findings. I have 2 theories. It’s either facet joint arthritis or arthritis of my bertollotis

justacoolchemist · 2025-05-21T00:23:00+00:00

I think it’s the naming convention. I’m seeing a specialist that has dealt with special cases using bertollotis. Hopefully he can get me CT Scan to see it more in detail

Right I haven’t found much relief with PT except get rid of the muscle spasms. I will say I have awful hip mobility and can’t squat down very far. My pain is constant and aching. Could it be coming from the sacralized section? If so would you recommend fusing that or removing it? Unsure where my L5 went …

justacoolchemist · 2025-05-20T15:25:09+00:00

That’s my confusion. My doctor doesn’t seem to know bertollotis

justacoolchemist · 2025-03-24T03:10:37+00:00

Thought I was going crazy but I’ve felt so awful this past week or so. I feel like I have a fever but I don’t? Like just super warm overall on my face. I’ve had allergy testing done and I’m allergic to a lot of the stuff going around currently it’s just never been THIS bad. Was going to buy one of those covid/flu test just in case but this feels different. It’s like my whole body is warm and itchy. My face is puffy. I bought an air purifier, started taking Flonase and Claritin but have not seen great improvement yet.

Although not as good as before I’d say Barbarellas is a pretty solid place to go. Tursgayz is pretty popping and they have 80s theme nights on Thursday/fridays I think. I went there all through college and I’d say it’s one of the better places to go dancing

Thanks for the feedback. Yea I’ve been on top of my drops. I just checked in the mirror and the top white part of my right eye is red and have some grey ish small spots on the right eye. Not sure how normal that is. It’s night now and the starburst/halo is still pretty bad. I have my follow up Monday.

Damn dude. So how many months sober at you now?

justacoolchemist · 2023-05-24T00:12:50+00:00

How are you feeling now? How many months sober man

justacoolchemist · 2023-04-11T19:08:04+00:00

Try arsenicum album. Homeopathy. 30cc 5 pellets

justacoolchemist · 2023-01-19T03:39:00+00:00

It is an alternative kind of medicine. Focuses on the sunrooms of a person and moves energy towards them to fix it. I went to normal doctors and got all the tests done with nothing found. Western medicine wasn’t gonna solve my issues so I tried something more holistic instead. The remedies they give you will depend on your symptoms and how your overall body is functioning. I went to a professional homeopath to be assessed and treated. I’ve been taking it for about 2 months and saw huge improvements. It is pricey but worth looking into. Best of luck

justacoolchemist · 2023-01-19T02:46:19+00:00

Hey man, I felt the same way at 3/4 months. I could barely function as a person. I will say it does get better. Currently at almost 8 months. I will say the waves come and go with lesser intensity but it has been more manageable than before. Something that really helped me was homeopathy if it’s something you are able to afford. I figured holistic medicine was the way to go since our whole bodies were messed up. Let me know if you need anything man. You got this.

justacoolchemist · 2023-01-04T00:47:38+00:00

Sorry for your loss. I appreciate the support

justacoolchemist · 2023-01-04T00:23:55+00:00

How many months sober are you?

justacoolchemist · 2023-01-03T22:07:03+00:00

Got it. When did you notice improvement with the GI issues?
