tomorrow i will be getting a bone scan done in odessa, texas (twenty miles from where i live) i had a motorcycle wreck on september ninth when i got rear ended by a z28. i recieved a compression fracture at T11 and a wedge fracture at T12 in my back. this test will determine if i need epidural steriod injections into the disc(s) to get rid of the inflammation. if the injections don't work, removal of the disc(s).
please pray that i don't even need the epidural injections. i would appreciate it. thanks y'all!

Let us know what the results are mate. I too had to have a bone scan (m.r.i) on my knee. It really is not very nice at all.

this wasn't an MRI. i'll get the results on wednesday.
the doctor who helped me was a hindu lady. this was the first time i could understand what one of them was saying. she spoke perfect english. hell, i don't even do that i speak the texas dialect.
