I have started the MEB process. I am being Meb for lower back/ lumbar pain. Now I have the DDD, and as well a lot more health issues. Any comments welcomed for help on getting the best rating I can. I have had physical therapy, 2 rounds of steroid shots, and nerve block shot. Nothing worked. I take 2 different nerve pain medication for my back and 1 of the 2 I take 3x a day. It keeps the nerve off but not enough.
