I had doctors telling me my back pain was all in my head. Fianlly got a doctor to listen to me. Told him it was in my low back but I was dying of headaches so he started sending me downtown (out of the area) for MRI's beginning with my brain, then they did my neck and fianlayy my low back. Had a really bad herniated disk, didn't even know how I was walking. They gave me an immediate referral to a local orthopedic and my military doc (love him) even spoke to the surgeon. But they actually sent me to a psychiatrist before I came across this military doc and I am glad they did as the doctor (psychiatrist) found I had a low thyroid and a severly low B12 level).
Keep at this!!
