Hi Maria,
Sometimes the hardest thing is when nothing is there that would explain the symptoms. I remember when I had my 4th MRI of my lumbar spine after all the previous ones showed only buldges, ddd,ect...In some ways I was happy that the herniation was evident on the 4th one and yet in other ways not. After complaining of pain so long and being treated like in was in my head I was happy to have something show up that I thought was fixable and something that explained my symptoms.
I do hope you get some answers. As my OSS always tells me.."Just because I can't find the cause doesnt mean it isn't there. It is my failure for not being able to find it. It does not mean it is in your head" And that is the biggest reason I love my surgeon!
Good luck and swift diagnosis to you!
