Runner,
I agree with you. It makes me mad when they give up on you w/o considering another disc being bad. The PA was awful and I hope you tell her. I bet your doctor will have another take on your problem. Hang in there and I hope the epidurals are helping a little. What about another opinion? More pain meds is just not the answer because we get used to the new dosage and it makes it harder to taper off. I'll keep my fingers crossed that you get some relief.
