finding help
Hello! My name is Deb and Im 47. I live in an area where there is hardly any Drs unless you are able to travel. I am now to the point with my pain that I cant handle anymore. I see a chiropractor and for years he has told me I have degenerative in my hips that are now basically bone to bone. He has never told me to do anything. about 2 years ago i had sciatica in left leg. Then while that was going on I pulled hamstring in same leg. I finally got kinda thru that. However, my left foot is halfway numb, and it swells very easily. my lower back feels like crumbling when I stand or walk. Dr. had MRI done 2 weeks ago and I guess nothing was wrong but normal wear and tear. Dr told me that 2 hours after MRI wich was done on mobile unit. Where can a person go with these problems and get help? This all cant be in my head. Im just needng someone to help me get to dr, but have no one. I am on disability for bi polar and other mental issues. I can not talk on a phone. I need advice any would help. Thank you all

I went to the same dr. office today, but different Dr. I have buldging L5 and 4. Im not really sure what that all means but start physical therapy on 14th. I got meds for my headaches, my incontinance and antibiotic for sinus infection plus steriod for something. For the life of me, I am just wondering why the nurse called me same day and said it was normal wear and tear. It kinda makes me mad
