Re: Desiccated Disc - what will be my fate?

I have been doing heavy construction for the last 2 years and have been out of work for about 10 weeks and have just recieved an MRI which does indicate that there is a decreased signal in the invertebral disc space at L4-L5 that is consistant with disc desiccation. I've been seeking therapy for the last 4 weeks and my condition doesn't seem to be improving much, Can u explain what other options are available.
