AFTER 6 MRI'S THEY FOUND L4 L5 COMPRESSION BUT NOT SURGERY WORTHY AND THEY SAID ITS' ON THE RIGHT SIDE WHICH IS WHERE I SHOULD BE HAVING PAIN AND I DON'T i HAVE NO PAIN ANOTHER REASON THE DOCTORS ARE CONFUSED AND PLUS THE FOOT DROP IS ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE COMPRESSION AS WELL.

You: Repeated series of pain that didn't follow a pattern they expected -
