MRI by-the-by...

Well, I've apparently got minor arthritic degeneration and a small amount of damage to one of the discs... I'm not a surgical candidate, and so far it looks like I may be looking at physical threapy. I've had Scott L. suggest that I get a second opinion of the MRI images, and I may do that too. I'll be making an appointment at any rate to talk to the doc to see what the options are.

... I don't care as long as it hurts less or STOPS hurting.
