I had several years of, "your films look way too good for you to be having the kind of pain you are reporting."

In 2002 in Munich, Dr. Zeegers was highly motivated to rule out the second disc. Fortunately for me, both were highly positive and the 2-level ADR surgery SOLVED my LBP. The discs don't have to look horrible to be painful.

I don't know what to say about the report you got. Do they use a divining rod or other such tool that allows them to generate such certain language? (In case anyone is not recognizing... this is a snarky remark!)
