[QUOTE="nocturnalbuck, post: 825887, member: 25953"] brother in brown, i wonder how your doing now? back in dec started getting a pain in my buttock and a little around my hamstring. thought no big deal, it's peak we are all overworked. mid-jan started going to chiropractor, who said keep coming back we'll get your bulging disk fixed in no time. a month into it i couldn't work anymore . went to a doctor that said nothing was wrong with me. went to a different chiropractor who kept saying he'll get me better. ran out of family leave a few weeks later (newborn baby) and finally had a doctor order an mri. sure shyt have an l-5 bulge touching my nerve. have had 2 epidurals which have somewhat reduced the pain, but don't think i could work with this still. have a microdisketomy scheduled for next wed. when they asked if it happened on the job, i couldn't give an exact date and time so it's pretty much outta work incident. i still get short term disability, have great insurance but absolutely no headaches as far as getting things approved while i squirm in pain. i'm glad to hear some success stories on here because the last couple weeks have been a real test mentally. not knowing if/when i'll get back to work and how i'll be treated when i do. i'm 33 and lift properly 99% of the time, they say it could really happen to anyone anytime. i dont' wish this on anyone. from what i've heard it could get a lot worse than what i have so i'm hoping a for a great recovery.
