Thank you for this. I think I might end up going to the ER because my mri and follow up are 2-3 weeks out.

That may be a good idea if you are in that much pain and unable to function normally. The ER can do ct scan and other testing to get to the source of your pain and determine the best treatment options. They may suggest steroid spinal injections or other pain management options. Keep in mind that if you do get an injection, it could affect an EMG/nerve conduction study. You may want to ask them if they have a neurologist in the ER and spine specialist to help diagnose/treat you properly and refer you for next steps. You’ll want your medical records sent to your providers.
