8 months ago my l5 vertebra slipped forward (ie. Spondi lolisthesises).
Unfortunately, I went to a chiropractor, who put me on my side and twisted my entire spine up to my neck. My spine was burning for 2 months. I went into hospital. Many painkillers later, cold dead pain across the whole of my back. My shoulder was up in the air, and I was hunched over. I could only sleep for 3 hours. I went back to see if they could fix me.
Instead, they tore my l5 disc (small annular tear. L4 cynovial syst developed). Now, 4 months later I am planning to spend 4 years to fix these problems. I am trying to re-build my spine, through my rib-cage, one vertabra at a time. Eventually moving more as my spine loosens up, (due to the fact that my muscles are in spasm). This is, of course, is very hard to do, and must be done thousands of times to straighten the curve (20% there so far).
However, if I do not, I will witness the death of a million nerves in my back.
If I ever straighten my back, I am thinking of travelling to the usa for idet treatment in florida to seal my disc tear.
Please give me any information as to what I should do, as chiropractors have already ruined my life. Anyone one who can offer advice for this condition or on anything that has happened to me, and what I am suffering from, I would be most grateful.....
Grateful to you, and thinking about complete spinal fusion...........
(or should I fight the fight?(even though it may take 4 years?))
