Does anyone else have symptomatic Schmorle's nodes?They are discs that herniate vertically and lodge in the adjacent vertebrae,instead of herniating laterally(to the sides)?

Does anyone else have symptomatic Schmorle's nodes in the spine?They are disc herniations that herniate vertically instead of laterally, and lodge in the vertebra above, causing an apperance of a "node" or circle inside the vertebral bone itself.I feel as though I have been "scewered",like a human-kabob!My thoracic spine burns intensley especially at the end of making dinner,any other time I stand upright for too long..Bending over so my spine's upside down, or lying down helps a lot as far as the burning goes.I hope someone can share their Schmorle's node story or anything that helps it!Thanks
