Today....

I threw my back out on Monday, am in pretty serious pain and will be unable to work for a week or two, which is rather frustrating. Constant pain is no fun, but I'm trying to catch up on paperwork at least.

First 10 minutes of the day, I just kneeled down to low-cut a stump, felt a little 'click' in my low back and knew exactly what it was, since it's happened so many times before. I've had reoccurring low back problems since I was a teenager, when I was found to have a herniated disk that occasionally pushes on a nerve. In the literally 20 years since I've had all type of x-rays, MRIs, physical therapy, chiro, acupuncture and of course nothing has ever 'solved' it. The most recent MRI a few years back revealed I have some type (forget the medical term) of 'severe arthritis' in my lower spine. Despite all that, I'm fine 99.9% of the time, am healthy and lead a very physical job and lifestyle as seen in the work photos posted here. It seems to happen about once a year on average so doesn't affect me all that much, but obviously it isn't something that gets better with time.

I'm just hoping I can hold out another decade or so and by then, after years of trying it out on boomers, they will have the surgeries figured out and can finally fix me :p
 
Yah, that was the term. Just a fancy word for 'yo back messed up dawg'. It's the worst in the mornings after being still all night and loosens up over the day. I've got a few leftover anti-inflammatories and pain killers from last time which I've been taking and are almost out now. I ought to be able to get more at the doctors in the next day or two.
 
So I have 3 herniated disc
(2nd time had 3 “repaired”)

I found a therapeutic massage place that takes two visits and it calms my irritation down (no happy endings lol)

But recently got my wife for x-mas a Thera-Gun
It’s the mini $200 but holy shit

it’s great everywhere
Makes me moan my household laughs at me but worth every penny
