Spine Specialist

I told my chiropractor about how badly my back is deteriorating. Exactly 1 year ago, I decided to go for a 3 mile jog. A few months earlier, I decided to walk around Greenlake.
Now, I can barely get 1/2 mile without excruciating pain that causes spasms so bad I sometimes fall down.
The chiropractor told me to go to my doctor. My doctor recommended a spinal specialist and said I should get in there right away. It took 3 weeks to get the nerve up to call the spine guy. Also, I was waiting for my brand new insurance to kick in...
Sadly, he doesn't take my insurance. I am not sure what to do now. But I fear that I will be in a wheelchair on a more permanent level soon.
This is all pretty scary stuff.
