Hi I have seen my spinal consultant had an MRI done and back x rays  . anyway I have been told I have 2 unstable discs at the bottom of my back causing nerve pain . I asked the pain doc if it was possable the backl problem was causing my abdominal pain and he said Yes....Its  like when you get siatica down your legs...  So it depends what nerves are involved .

    That's great you got an MRI scan and X ray done, and the problem was found. Have they said what can be done? Hope it goes well.

    Good luck with the injections. Not a pleasant experience, but better than surgery, especially if you've had five surgeries already. Hope it goes well smile
