See a specialist: The decription sounds like an unstable situation however we would need to know more about the exam and how it is affecting your ability to do things like move legs, control bowel and/or bladder. Position sense. Etc? I would recomend a spine surgeon review.

See your MD: Looks like you have degenerative changes to your lumbar spine. There are many non-surgical treatment options. See your physician to discuss these. You may also want to be refered to a spine specialist.
