Hi, everyone. For about a year now, I've had a sunburn-like feeling over much of my body. It starts at my toes, goes up the tops of my feet and into my shins. Then it dips behind my thighs, up through my butt, my lower back, and into my shoulders and arms. I've had tons of tests, and the only...

Pooby and DietDrPepper, Thank you for your thoughtful replies. I am sorry for my long delay in getting back to you. I have been on vacation and haven't been in front of my computer. I will follow each of your advice as I try and figure this thing out. I really appreciate you taking the time...

Devon, Thanks a million for the suggestion. I don't know what a 'nerve chart' is. Is that when they test your nerves to see what's working? Thanks! - Marlow

Kay, Thanks so much for all of your additional information. I appreciate your thoughts and advice. I'm sorry to hear about your fall, and I hope that you feel better as well. Thanks so much. M

Lynn, Thanks so much for your thoughts. Yes, I get pain down through my arms to my fingertips. I also have it all the way down my legs to my toes. Weird. My cervical MRI says that I have a small, less than 3 mm protrusion at my C5-6, but the docs don't think that it is pressing on any nerves. I...

Hi, everyone. I have a moderate bulge in my L5 disk. A small part of it has actually herniated. My symptoms (burning, tingling, pricky, pain, etc.) began in my feet and my knees. Basically, I feel like I have sunburn. Over the past few months, this sensation has spread to my lower back, and my...

Fingers crossed that you'll soon be leading a less painful life... Jacqueline, what is your pain like? SounRAB like we have...

Thank you very much for getting back to me, everyone. I really appreciate your thoughts. Yes, it's all quite confusing. It's interesting that your toe hurts. I get this a lot. Both my big toes hurt, as well as my little ones. I know this sounRAB odd. What is your burning like? Does it move...

Linda, thanks so much for that helpful information. I'll do as you suggest. Best wishes. - Marlow

Ah, I see. What you say makes great sense, and I very much appreciate your insight. Thank you so very much. - Marlow

Hi, everyone. I have bulging disks at both L5 and T6. I am trying to determine which of my symptoms are coming from where. Basically, I have shooting pains in my big toes and this sunburn feeling on my legs and into my butt. I also have pain in my genital area. I understand what an L5 buldge can...

Has anyone tried this machine? I read about it online. Some Mayo study said that it reduced back pain in 88% of the people involved in the study. I am thinking about trying it and wondered if people had thoughts/concerns about it. Thanks. - Marlow

George, the neurosurgeon didn't tell me what could be causing the pain the gential region, other than to say to have a MRI of my pelvis, which is a good idea. I'm not so sure he's right about the back, though. I mean, I have a slight herniation at L5, and if I bend over, pick something up, I...

This is an interesting conversation for me to follow. I have a moderate buldge at L5/S1. I have some pain in my legs and my genitals. I just saw a neurosurgeon who is highly recommended. He says that an L5 buldge couldn't affect my genitals. Is he right? I thought that an L5 issue could affect...
