2008 Lumbar Spine: Tear in Annulus and Lumbar Spine Curvature
Video contains 2 loops through axial cross sections: (1) axial cross section showing position in T1 and T2 sagittal cross section using cross reference scout line; (2) axial cross sections (zoomed) detailing damaged annulus and nucleus pulpous tissue, torn and moved nerve roots etc. The selected lumbar T2 axial cross sections in L1-2 disc, L3-4 vertebrae bodies and all L4-5 cross sections show progressed disc degeneration, tear in annulus and lumbar peripheral nerve damage. Tear in annulus occurred on Spirit Rock Meditation property during February 2001 residential meditation retreat.
I have upright, erect posture, normal gait without lumbar spine pain and radiculapothy.
HOW DID MY LUMBAR SPINE CURVATURE INCREASE 11.9074662 DEGREE presents statistical analysis of my lumbar spine curvature proving 11.9074662 degree increase in supine posture curvature for years 2001-2008 compared with 1995. 1995 lumbar spine injury occurred on personal property lifting a heavy, damp newspaper recycling bin. I did not have upright erect posture for 2-3 days into 7 day prednisone taper. Normal gait returned after prednisone taper and physical therapy. Epidural injection was not administered.
Scientific research documents and utilizes the brain’s ability to force coherence with another person’s nervous system controlling sensory perception including injury pain and symptoms, cognition and body movement. Buddhist meditation instruction develops these capabilities and is documented in Buddhist religious text. Videos in YouTube channel dkaplan99 document injury whose proximate cause is being investigated and suspected to be attribute to people having these capabilities to create injury, conceal symptoms and damages.

MRI Showed a Very Large Cervical Disc Herniation, Anterior Discectomy + Fusion Helped This Patient
Anne started experiencing pain shooting down her neck to her left shoulder and arm. Eventually the pain prevented her from walking her dogs which kept her in shape, she had trouble sleeping, and was loosing the function of her left arm.
Anne went to her primary care physician which recommended she get an MRI of her neck. The MRI demonstrated a very large C5-6 herniated disc. Her physician referred her to a specialist: Dr. Hamada. Dr. Hamada showed Anne exactly where her pain was coming from and explained how they were going to fix the problem. Anne was a little uneasy about how Dr. Hamada was going to use an anterior approach (front of the neck) but Dr. Hamada explained that This procedure is done through a small incision in the front of the neck resulting in minimal trauma to the neck tissues. This approach allows for minimal spinal nerve or cord traction and thus a quicker recovery period. Often a spinal fusion is done by placing a small piece of cadaver bone in between the two vertebrae. Occasionally, if the surgery involves more than one disc level or there is significant spinal cord compression, the we may need to place a small plate on the anterior cervical vertebrae in order to give further spinal stability. Because bone fusion takes time to grow, you will need to be in a cervical collar or brace for several weeks to allow complete recovery.
Anne underwent a anterior cervical discectomy and instrumented (plate & screws) anterior fusion in April of 2005. Anne said, When I woke up, the pain was completely gone. Anne said she could do everything she wanted to do right after surgery as long as she wore a neck brace while her bones were fusing. Learn more at: www.HamadaMD.com
