Default Not all Drs. believe in discograms

You will have to choose which dr. you feel the most confident will provide you with a good, long term outcome. I had a 3 level ADR surgery recently and never had a discogram. My surgeon actually strongly cautioned me to not have one when the pain management dr. I was seeing recommended it. My surgeon told me that discograms were not only painful, they were not accurate and could actually be harmful. Isn't it strange how many different opinions different drs. have about a single subject? Good luck with your decision. Let us know what you decide and how it turns out for you.
