Hello,
First I want to say a big thank you for the videos about how to understand the MRI’s, they are extremely helpful.
I have a bulging disc at C6-7 that is pinching the right channel and nerve. Pain, however, has been presenting in the left shoulder/neck region. Is this possible? Or would the left-sided pain be from another source? I have spent almost a year trying to address the severe pain, including medication and injections, with no success. The follow-up MRI shows no change in the disc. The neurosurgeon I was referred to has suggested the bulge is not responsible, however the doctor/pain specialist had suggested it is possible that it could be pulling or stretching the nerve on the left side and causing pain there. I don’t know who to believe.
Many thanks for any insight you may be able to share!
Michael
