Sciatic pain after microdiscectomy

[reflection]

3. I hope somehow you are able to eventually leave the pain behind.

As for the MRI, they do have open-air scanners. Not in every city, but they are around. We are fortunate in Memphis here to have two. As backwards as Memphis is it's a great medical town.

For the longest time, I was like you and would tell the doc, anything but cutting. Don't cut me. By the end of it I was bawling and begging for him to cut me. The day after the surgery he called to see how I was doing and I said "I'm a new man! If I weren't heterosexual and married I would commit unspeakable, illegal acts with you." He laughed so hard I thought he would herniate his own disc.
