You need to post in the other forum area to pose a a question to a doctor.
They charge a minimal amount for that.

That said, why did you have the MRI done?
What kind of pain might you be having?

If you have not seen a spinal/back surgeon he/she is the best to evaluate. But make sure you bring the MRI films, not only the radiologist's report. I have founf those surgeons are more adept at reading and interpreting the films.

Good Luck
