    Spinal decompression drx9000

    My story is confusing and long so I won't tell it again. I had an MRA two weeks ago due to horrible pain in my right leg, turns out I have two herniations touching the nerves.

    Question about cramps?

I also get cramps in my right foot, but not as frequent, the emg showed an occasional +1 positive sharp waves, this was almost two years ago.

    The motor nerve and atrophy?

    I have been following Tag's story and I am hoping for the best. I cannot help but to see similarities between her husband and me. My saga started out looking at my lower back condition to explain the atrophy of my calf and the paralysis of my left big toe. At first it was a possible tumor...
