 [ Symptoms ] i have a small herniated disk c5c6 does not touch the main nerve but the pain is incredible i can not work i can not practice sport anymore i can not even walk [ Disease ] that depends on what the physician wants to use for their procedure you can not exactly go in and say i want this particular product there are two products that is true that are available currently and one does involve taking tablets and they did find that with these particular preparations there is decreased cramping and abdominal discomfort so therefore patients thought that it was not as much of these side effects and medication was actually easier for them to take but we want to consider the fact that the physician really makes this choice they are the ones who are doing the procedure they are the ones that are familiar with which they like better in patients so i would say to this particular patient sure there are two alternatives one you may not have to drink as much fluid or you may get to take some pills they are i believe they are not the size of horse pills they are tiny pills but we do not get to make that decision that is up to the healthcare provider or prescribing physician
