#12  Raptor, if it is a nerve problem try traction. If its out of your neck you can get a home traction device for $25.00 that will left your head off your neck. If its out of your lower back try gravity boots or some other type of traction that will pull you legs off your spine. Though a good message may get you through the day you need to un-clamp that nerve to get out of pain.

If your hurting get ye to a physical therapist first.

Neurologist will be able to diagnose your problem but you need relief. Seek releif!

BTW, I play a doctor all the time.

#11  Raptor, I can't practice medicine over the net. Licensing, etc. doesn't allow that. My advice: try a different doc, perhaps a neurologist or an orthopedist, and listen to what they have to say. Best of luck, I do hope you get better.

#4  Raptor - time to chg GP's - long distance diagnosis isn't the best...possibly a pinched nerve? I'm not a doctor, nor do I play one on TV, nor did I stay in a Holiday Inn, but I've had nerve pain, and it's not all in your head.
