question: white male, age 32, lower back injury in January with pain radiating down the LEFT leg. did physical therapy, and chiropractics with no relief. Dr practioner prescribed oral steroid and pain patch on Thursday of last week. Have not actually seen an MD. Also a history of Crohn s disease. Now am experiencing numbness and uncoordination of the RIGHT leg, no shooting pain down right leg. Also have not had a bowel movement for three days. MRI is supposed to be scheduled within the next seven days. I think this is getting extremely serious now and am worried about more serious problems. Medical advice would be appreciated on what to do next. Do I need to go to ER or wait to talk to someone in doctors office on Monday.
