peace AND all that's blog: "What I Am"

Here I thought my back was getting better.  75% less pain & able to 

swim laps again & even ride my bike,  No tennis though.

So thought okay maybe  I overreacted & it was just a pulled muscle taking time to heal....

Well I got the results of the MRI today 

& T11-12 level-Normal 

   T12-L1 level: Normal 

   L1-2 level Disc desiccation w/ small anterior endplate osteophytes. Circumferential disc bulge.

   L2-3 level: Disc desiccation w/ small anterior endplate osteophytes. Minimal  Circumferential disc bulge.

   L3-4 level: Disc desiccation w/ small anterior endplate osteophytes. No significant central canal  stenosis.

                    Mild Neuroforaminal stenosis bilaterally..Facet joint capsular hypertrophy.

                    No significant central canal  stenosis.  Mild Neuroforaminal stenosis bilaterally.

   L4-5 level: Disc desiccation.   Circumferential disc bulge. Facet joint capsular hypertrophy. 

            No significant central canal  stenosis.  Mild Neuroforaminal stenosis bilaterally.
