Exclamation Find a New Doctor

Raneah

Please take the recommendation of the people here. There are some that are very knowledgeable and well acquainted with the medical world. All have had experiences with the spine. Do not wait, there is no great fix for your spine.

Do you need a referral from your doctor to see an orthopedic spine specialist or neurologist. If not, call one immediately and explain your problem.

It's probably not illegal, maybe immoral, but give them an extreme symptom which would get you in sooner??

Can't your chiropractor order a MRI. If not he should have a doctor friend.
Or friends doctors, a friend of a friend, try anything.

It is ridiculous that you can't get into your doctor before Feb 24. Find a new doctor and report the old one.

Good luck and best wishes, Sandy
