I got my results back today.

I got the results of my MRI and my EMG tests..
My MrI shows there is no damgae to my disc or spine..YYiippeee
I am confused though.I am still having pain in my neck and burning sensation,My EMG report says that i have severe nerve damage and moderate carpel tunnel..It says i have nerve damage in the ulnar nerve up to the elbow.I went to se a neurological surgeon this afternoon.He told me to stop taking flexeril and start on zanaflex.I am to go for a MRI on my head then on for blood work and an EEG test...I also was told no work for 2 more weeks!!! I called my boss and he surprosed me by saying just take the time i need to heal and give him a call to let him know how i am doing!! WOW that was a real shocker.He isnt gonna fire me bacause he is short staffed right now and even when the time comes i will be on light duty and he knows that.I guess he figures better to have some help rather than none at all!!
I have been spared being let go for now!!! I have nothing more than a new pill though,LOL..I know the waiting is probably gonna be the hardest part!!!
Well take care and thanks for being here for me..

Thumbs up Re: I got my results back today.

Hi Sublime! Well, it sounds like you just might be getting somewhere...at least things are happening. I'm really happy for you that your boss did not fire you regardless of the reason. I'm sure that is a relief to you. Thank you for the update, and please continue to let us know how you are when you can! Love, Surgical Disaster
