Welcome Blessedbyhim33--I like your member name BTW.
Good luck at the end of the month. Personally, I have had experience with the Texas Back Institute and Dr. Richard Guyer. I was incredibly pleased with my treatment there--it is a top-notch operation. -Justin

"Discogram of 3 discs OUCH OUCH OUCH GEEEEEEEEEEEEEEZ"
I have yet to have a discogram for various reasons. But I'm sure I'll be tested for 3 discs as you were. Everybody I've spoken to whose had the procedure has the same comment as you Laura. You guys are scaring the heck out of me!  Good Luck with the ADR and keep us posted.
