Pain in the Neck

Well you guys that thought I was just a big pain in the neck hehehe here are the results of my cat scan from my fall(which is NOT the results of the scan for my cancer check up)

C2-3 Only the inferior margin of this level was included on the study and there is a small posterior disc bulge or disc protrusion seen at the superior margin of the scan

C3-4 A moderate sized disc complex ix seen at this level. To the left of the midline, this abuts the left anteriolateral margin of the cord and there is some mild stenosis as a result. There is mild left neural foraminal narrowing.

C4-5 A small central disc protrusion is seen at this level and minimal associated osteophyte formation is seen at the superior margin of the disc protrusion. This is causing mild mass effect upon the anterior margin of the thecal sac

C5-6 There is a small focal central disc protrusion at this level as well, causing mass effect upon the anterior margin of the thecal sac

C6-7 A small broad based central disc protrusion is seen at this level causing mild mass effect upon the anterior margin of the thecal sac

C7-T1: The canal is partially obscured by artefact from the shoulders. There is mild osteoarthritis in the left facet joint

and my day begins...............Now I just need to find someone to translate that into English
