Default My 3 mo X ray - Discs tilted all over the place

This is a standing straight face forward x Ray my doc took today. Looking at these disc tilts, one wouldnt think I was standing straight.




Does this make sense? Is this normal? I mean, it seems the bottom and top plates are tilting in all different directions, no rhyme or reason to it. For example, the top disc bottom plate is tilting to the lower right while the bottom disc's lower plate is tilting to the lower left. Why is the lower disc's top plate tilting way up to the right like that in a x ray that was taken while I am standing straight face forward? If anything, you'd think they'd all be tilting the same way at least. Yikes!

But Im in no pain so maybe I shouldnt worry about it. We'll see what Dr B has to say I guess.

9/20/10 - I think I jinxed myself. As soon as I told dr b and dr Sullivan I was doing well (on 6/1/10) I tanked and have experienced the return of pain. My neuro says the new pain is at t4.
