Still confused

Well. The awaited MRI reports came in and guess what? They still do not know anything. My bulges and herniation remains the same , no worse, no better. How can it be no better? I have been doing everything to improve short of surgery. Shouldn't my bulges have gone away by now? Why are my tears not healing? For heaven sakes it has been over three freaking years already. So is it safe to say that decompression did squat? Ooh I am furious.
I also went and saw someone who did a bunch of nerve tests. All I know is that it was god awful painful when he jolted me with the electricity and pricked me with needles. One needle hit a nerve the wrong way and I almost kicked the doctor. I kept apologizing after. I kept thinking what a horrible job it is to stick people with needles. Well anyway that test helped to determined somehow that my bulges and herniation is not that bad for the pains I am experiences. And then he said the dreaded words. Maybe you have fibromyglacia( I am sure I spelt it wrong) You know the syndrome that is used whenever you have a bunch of symptoms that mimic other symptoms. So now I am going to get a blood test. They want to rule out that I do not have an inflammatory disease.
So the clock ticks. Will fill you in on my next post. Wish me some luck with getting somewhere with this.
