i am new to this forum and have just been
told by by gp that I have 'narrow disc
space' which has been causing pain in my
lower back for 1year +. He's referred me
to a rheumatologist t the local hospital.
I'm kind of relieved that there's
something discernable wrong with me, but
also worried that there's not alot they
can do. I'm on 28 and I don't want to be
in this much pain for the next 50 years!
I'm also really worried about stuff like
having children, and what effect it will
have on me.
Does anyone know anything about this? Can
you offer any advice?
Thanks,
cambers xxx

I would not worry since it does not help.
I would get informed and find out all you
can . Look over this site it is loaded
with information and resources.
and on the site the check out causes of
back pain, back basics, methods of
treatment and therapies.
Narrowing may not required anything more
than exercise or physical therapy but
until a doctor tells you do some research.
The more you know the better off you will
be.
