You probalby need to see you regular doctor, family doctor, the one you would go to for the usual anything and explain the situation bring the mri and ask for a referal there. When you make an appointement and they don't have one anytime soon then tell them you need to see the doctor soon and get on the standby list so if someone cancels their appointment you can get in sooner. This does work if they are booked long in advance. Do it now you can alway cancel and appointment. Be flexible with your time helps. That should get you going in the right direction.

Good luck.

I also have similar symtoms like you have like burning pain etc and for me heat works much better for those symtoms. If it is only pain then ice usually works better due to reducing swelling etc, but my nerves really like heat.
