Hi all

So I've had problems with backache for many years, I've just kind of put up with it. But it's come to ahead recently. Sometimes the pain is so bad it feels like my spine is going to snap, or feels like it's crushing if I try to straighten up straight away after standing. I can't lay flat on my back without it hurting, having the MRI I had to have a cushion under my legs to take the pressure off my spine. Anyway, I made a call to my GP who sent me for an MRI. The MRI has shown I have 2 hemangiomas one in the T10 vertebrae and the other is in L2, I also have dehydrated disks between L4 and L5 and they are below average height. So my question is is the pain from the hemangioma or the disks... What will be done about the hemangioma if anything at all? Currently waiting to speak with my GP and will put these questions to him... But thought I would look for peoples experiences while I wait. Thank you xxx
