FOX NFL insider Jay Glazer has dealt with a lot of personal struggles in his life but now finds himself forced to take drastic measures to deal with a serious injury.
Taking to Twitter on Thursday, Glazer revealed that he has traveled to Panama in order to get stem cell treatments on his spine. He said that ruptures in his back have left him with no L4 and L5 vertebrae and several discs are in danger of being lost too.
"THIS is why I’m in #panama getting stem cell treatments and what doc wanted to fuse. I have no L4/L5 left from all the ruptures, few discs up too are on their way out. Sooooo pretty. I’ve walked around and trained with this somehow for years but it caught up to me. Will have an update later today on how treatments are going," Glazer wrote.
Glazer also shared an image of the x-ray of his spine and it doesn't look pretty.
Fortunately, Glazer is getting plenty of support in the comments from other Twitter users who have dealt with similar issues:
"I got the fusion in the same area, hopefully whatever you decide works out. Low back pain sucks," one user replied.
"Feel better Jay. My L5-S1 is shot. Hopefully getting an epidural. Back pain is no joke," wrote another.
"This is my future. I’ve had two microdiscectomy’s on my the same discs. One for each side. Very curious to see how the stem cell treatment goes. Good luck!" a third wrote.
We wish Jay the best in his treatment and recovery.
