Grace has anything happened since your original post?
It's frustrating to get stopped by the system when you have such a serious problem. Any bowel or bladder issues?
The family doctor may or may not have the correct approach with conservative treatment, epidurals, etc...; but I would hope that especially in someone with a history of spine issues, that such a decision would need to come from a spine specialist, not the family doctor.
Please let us know how it's going.
All the best,
Mark
