@ Zoe:
If your doc will prescribe xanax, will he prescribe vallium, klonopin, or ativan in place of it? I just ask because those three of those are good muscle relaxants as well as something to combat anxiety...Just a thought for the meantime...
Sorry in advance for what I'm about to ask, but here goes lmao:
Recently got back MRIs to find that I've got 3 herniated disks, DDD, lumbar stenosis, and hyperkyphosis...The stenosis is causing peripheral problems as well though...It causes me to have stabbing pain shoot down my buttocks, and leg, and also causes the numbness and tingling in my feet...Another issue it's causing however is FREQUENT, recurrent epididymitis...Should this be cause for concern if I'm having the painful swelling more than once a week? If this info is important, it's not just one of them, it will switch around or even affect both at times...From gentle palpitations during an episode, it felt as though there was something else inside one side of my scrotum...Hard to explain what it felt like...it was amorphous and almost seemed as if it were some type of tissue that was around the testicle-sort of like an egg wrapped in a towel. Could this possibly be a hernia? It kind of felt like it was something that was hanging down from above, so I worry it might have been intestine...It's not always present, but does show up on occasion when I have epididymitis episodes...
