ive had backpain off and on for years but recently i started getting sciatic pain and it hasnt gone away past 6+ months.

i recently had a MRI and this was his impression

1. L4-5 rightward disc herniation with extruded disc fragment extending into the right L5 lateral recess with moderate central stenosis

2. bulge/protrusion at L3-4 centrally with annular tear and mild central stenosis

3. milder lumbar discogenic change otherwise

4. foraminal narrowing as delineated

5. diminished height of L5 posteriorly, however, no discrete spondylolysis is identifeied on this study

i dont really know what any of this means but it hurts. am i eligible for MMJ in RI? if so any advice on meetings or somewhere i could find a doc to reccomend it for me
