I have what they call a minor bulge at L-5; sometimes my leg gives out on me (just momentarily) and the pain radiates down to my knee. When I go to the chiropractor (who, BTW, sent me for an MRI), he said to pass the MRI along to my doctor . . . and the chiropractor helps tremendously . . . but if I pivot or I have to stop short, it's back.
