Treatment For Pain In Neck, Back, Knee And Foot Numbness?

I have neck, back, right knee pain and numbness in my right foot. So far, my MRI says I have a bulging disk below my C6-C7 fusion that is pinching a nerve, the lower two disks in my lumbar spine are gone. All of my RA tests were negative. Tomorrow they are doing an EMG on my right leg. I have been diagnosed with post-polio, fibromyalgia and osteoarthritis. They have had me in therapy (PT) for two months and done 3 epidurals on my neck and my pain is still there. Additionally, I fell twice and had an avulsion fracture on my left little finger and a radial neck fracture on my right elbow. What are my options for a definite diagnosis and treatment?

Hi,Welcome to Health care magic forum.
It appears that you must be having deficiency of the calcium, and vitamin D, probably due to the thymus gland problem, or thyroid defeciency .
I advise you to consult an endocrinologist for diagnosis and treatment. You may need to have hormone essay.
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms, neurotropic injections
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
