  I also suffer with bulging discs and fibromyalgia and CFS. These tend to make treatment more complicated and I would like to know about the advantages and disadvantages of the injections.

  

  I have degenerative osteoarthritis of the facet joints in my back especially L2-5? What can you tell me about injections and other courses of treatment for the pain?

  I am looking for some one who can help me understand why I fail at diets, emotionally is there something wrong. I've had weight issues for 45 years.

  

  Is there such a thing as a diet doctor? Not a nutritionist.

  This pain goes after resting for a while,about 30 minutes later. I am so disturbed about it, gone for blood checks and all was ok. I did urinalysis,and all is ok.

  

  I have lower backache, which becomes more painful at walking for a distance or climbing up stairs. The pain then radiates to my hip joints, weakening my thigh musles, and to the shoulders, back of the neck ,behind my head and sternum.
