DH has 2 bulging discs in his lower back (L4-L5 and L5-S1). His neurosurgeon in Little Rock said that physical therapy won't help. DH has had 2 epidural shots and although they have relieved the pain somewhat, he still hurts. Another option, according to the doctor, is surgery. DH husband wants to avoid this if at all possible.
Some people have mentioned checking out the Texas Back Institute but we can't find anyone who has had experience with this center. Apparently, the doctors here try to avoid surgery as well, opting for other treatments.
Has anyone had experience with them? If so, is there a particular doctor here that you would recommend? Any help you can give will be greatly appreciated. TIA.
