re disc bulge
I think my disc bulges were measured in mm and they were small like 2 to 4mm or something like that and created all kinds of nasty pain for me so your disc bulge is something like 12mm I think if converted to mm... yeah that's big!
With that size disc bulge and "extreme" numbness and weakness I am surprised you're having to go thru everything all over again esp. if you say you're getting worse. I mean I can understand an updated MRI and diagnostics tho not a round of ESI again at this point other than maybe to hope to calm down some of the pain related symptoms prior to surgery.
Then again I don't have any idea of how the military handles things and have been used to a Worker's Comp type of treatment which depends on what year it is and status of CA WC system as to how well things are handled.
Still I would think your symptoms warrent some expedited care/treatment.
good luck~ Maria
