T1 nerve root - neck or back forums??

Well I finally got the revised MRI report. Apparently I have a herniated disc at T1/T2 pressing on the T1 nerve root.

But I am lost. I know this is the thoracic spine but nothing in the back forums talk about this area and it doesn't seem to fit in the cervial area. My pain is mostly in the side of my neck and my shoulder area.

I stopped PT and am going to a neurosurgeon next Wednesday. In the mean time I want to find out everything that I can. So where does this fit?

Kris, please do not worry about where this post will fit

Try it out in the Thoracic section. Thats where I started most of my discussions regarding T disc problems.
