Hi I went and had my spin checked in 03 and was told I have a slipped disc and a bulged disc. One in my middle back and the other in my lower back. They suggested to go get accupuncture and so I did. At that time I was having the pain in the middle of my back. Now it's the lower part. Well my new ins. Doesn't cover that and I am having the pain in my lower back. It's the most painful feeling ever. It happen at about 3 or 4 am I wake up and can barely move. I then ice my back and usually fall back asleep. My new doc. Told me to do stretches because my thigh muscles are tight and that can cause the pain. Well I do my stretches everyday 2 times a day and still am having the pain. My question is: does anyone now anything else I can do to help the pain or make this go away?
