General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,

I understand your concern.

Before running into final conclusions, I need to have the MRI report, so I can analyze the changes myself.

We should determine if problems are due to nerve compression in the periphery (coming out from the spinal roots) or we should investigate for any brain damage.

I understand you have low income, but MRI report should be analyzed to determine the right diagnosis and treatment strategy.

All the best.
