Read about my wife's ordeal (Diane on the GPN story pages, website linked below in my sig file.) I was furious that her leg was numb and they weren't doing an MRI. (I was out of the country at the time.)

You have obvious neuro involvement and an xray will not tell the story. Make them do an MRI.

Good luck,

Mark
