Well, yeah, Amos... It is definately a pinched nerve... When a disc blows out that causes a pinched nerve... Otyher things can cause them, too, like imflamation and injuries and stuff that IO don't even know about...

I have not ruled out a chiroprator but I would like to zero in on where the nerve in pinched before doing something that might make matters even worse...

I hope to be talking with a neuro-ologist or sergeon this week to try to pin point where it is pinched... Once I know that then I'll explore the various trearment options...

But thanks... I'm trying to play smart here...
