Title: Put Your Ailments Here
Post by: Snaggletiger on September 29, 2011, 04:23:51 PM
Well nothing perks up a beautiful Thursday afternoon like a 3 inch needle in the lower back.  I can't stop grinning and it's all care care bears and kittens from here.  Been having major spasms in the lumbar area over the last week.  The last two mornings, they hit me when I got out of bed and brought Snaggie to his knees.  Just got back from the orthopedic doc who said I had a straightening of the lordotic curve with foramenal spurring on the anterior lumbardosis stenosis osis mecca lecka hi mecca hiney ho.  I'm old.  Bottom line, when your backs fricked up, everything's fricked up.

The cool thing is that I get to see how muscle relaxers interact with Tylenol PM and Makers Mark tonight.  Should be interesting. Film at 11:00.

I can tell you that Lortab and a Sam Adam's Octoberfest will combine to make you forget all about having the back of your leg stitched together.

To add to what Buzz said.......you will be out in 15 minutes.  Check that, since you mix with coke and won't turn the bottle up and kill about 6 shot in 10 seconds, it will take you an hour or so.

I had some back trouble myself earlier this year Snaggle although not to the extent of having a needle stuck in my lower back.  A pinched nerve had my right hip hurting so bad that could not lift my leg or put much pressure on the hip itself.  Getting in and out of the car was quite a dramatic undertaking.  Mobic and Tylenol...and Jack Daniels has helped.

I can't imagine what you went through.  I have a good friend who ruptured his last year and I have no doubt you went through hell with that deal.

Mobic.  I had a client come in the office a few weeks back and she told me, "I done belee I could makes it wiffout dat Moby Dick".

Mine is more muscular across the lower back.  Happened once before about 10 years ago from something as simple as twisting the wrong way while getting in the car.  Fricked me up for 3 months.  I tried to tough it out then and didn't do anything after the ER that night.  This time, I want drugs and therapy damn it.

Truthfully it wasn't that bad.  By the fourth day post-surgery...and about 30 Lortabs later...it was alright.  Just trying to find a way to sleep for the first few nights prompted me to double up on those little white angels.

Oddly that's how mine started...getting into the car wrong...well, that and 'pulling something' while trying to start the push-mower.  Drugs, therapy...and burbinz is the way to go.

Well let's see:

I have a torn Labrum in my left shoulder
I have a bad rotator cuff in my right shoulder
I have a bum left knee
My feet hurt 24 hrs a day
I have a recurring problem with my ciatic nerve that shoots pain down my entire left leg

Yeah I'd say getting old sucks.  Seems like only a few years ago i was pain free.  And the wife wonders why I like to drink so much beer.

I had the sharp sciatic nerve pain shoot down my right leg from the 3 bulging discs in my back. One year of physical therapy, Lyrica, tramadol and one epidural and I'm a brand new man.

The abuse is purely mental. 

My cure all cocktail did put me to sleep....until about 3:00 when my back said frick it, you sleep too muuuuuch.  You get up now..suffer.

So, I crawled to man cave, whimpering like dog out in the rain, and turned on the tube.  I now have videos coming that will make my abs ripped  and firm my thighs and buns in just 5 minutes a day without ever going to the gym.  I ordered the ab chair too just to mix it up.  I should feel healthier just two days after starting my miracle colon cleansing kit for just 3 easy payments of $19.99.  Plus, my sex life is about to take off as soon as my order of penXtenz arrives.  Oh, and I'm starting a great little real estate business from right here on my own computer.

Who knew about all this great stuff?

Bumpity Bump Bump.

Back problem has only gotten worse.  Spent 2 days of my Houston visit last week in the "Houston Total Spine Clinic".  I was certain it was muscular.  Was told it was most assuredly a disc.  MRI being set up to determine just how screwed up I am.  Well, I made it to 51 before starting to fall completely apart.

Damn. You are old.......

If you only have one bad disc, look into the fake discs instead of fusion. They are pretty good now.


But if you have several, the fake ones probably will not work.

Fuck me.  I apologize to everyone for the old remarks, especially if it will take away the pain in my leg.   

I was taking the trash cans to the street tonight and when I walking back into the house up the steps in the garage something didn't feel right and now I have a sharp shooting burn under my knee cap.  Feels like someone just rubbed Zostrix under my knee cap and it's a sharp shooting pain down the front of my shin.  I knew it was coming as they grind and pop all the time when I am walking, just didn't figure it would happen in my 30's. 

If my apologies don't happen to make the pain go away, then   :haha: you are still a bunch of old fuckers.   :)

I got one. Use to, I could sleep on either shoulder, my stomach or back and wake up just fine. Now, if I sleep on either shoulder it feels like I've ripped out my ligaments. If sleep on my stomach, I wake up with one of my two arms numb as shit. I have found one certain position on my back with my arms and head turned and situated in one certain spot that allows me to sleep for 2 hours straight. I hate this. I don't sleep worth shit anymore. Now I know why so many older folks drink the shit outta coffee.

You need to see a specialist.  I have no idea what that would be but it does sound like an appointment with an ortho doc is in order.

Had the MRI on my back Monday evening.  Haven't heard back yet so I called the doc's office and they have the results but the doc likes to go over those in person with the patient.  He can see me Monday.  So, I have to spend the weekend wondering if I have a herniated disc, goat aids or what.  The key is, if I make the appointment and go in the office...he can charge me.  No charge if he reads the two sentences on the results.

No way they'll lose that co-pay and Insurance charge two sentences or not. Hell, anytime I need to see a doc worth a damn I have to come down there to Dothan or Columbus, so there is the gas money too; all for a two minute greeting.

Speaking of this, my wife is also feeling these ailments. The women never drinks milk, skinny and gives the treadmill hell. Now, she has a couple of stress fractures in her foot. Well, she had an appointment at Southern Bone there in Dothan last Tuesday. We get there, doc has jury duty and a 3 hr wait to see a different doc. That shit does.not.work with little rugrats with you. I was pissed and the nurse damn well knew it. I explained that I had to leave work early, check my kid out of school and waist gas from an hour drive for this? Just saying these things to the nurse made me realize how old I was.

Dammit, I am doomed.  I hear that drinking wine will speed up the rate at which goat aids works.  Apparently it will fuck your back up, raise your BP and cause you to not be able to sleep at night without the aid of alcohol and Tylenol PM.

I blame this shit on Snaggletiger, of course.  If his old ass wouldn't have posted anything about his aliments, I wouldn't have taken a cheap shot (ok, so I would have somewhere else) about him being old, then it wouldn't have came back on me.

Don't worry, knee surgery isn't that bad.....

I had knee surgery almost 1 year ago. For that matter, my knee still isn't right. I'm allowed to fuck with you.

Seriously though, that shit hurts. I'm not going to sugarcoat it. I've broken bones before and it didn't hurt as bad. I wasn't aware a knee could be that sore. But then again, my meniscus was totally detached from the bone and they had to fish it out of the back of my knee and reattach it with stitches and some biodegradeable screws (never heard of such a thing in my life). I never imagined how difficult it is to do every day shit with a bad wheel. I couldn't imagine how difficult it must be for somebody with an amputation.

I had knee surgery almost 1 year ago. For that matter, my knee still isn't right. I'm allowed to fuck with you.

Seriously though, that shit hurts. I'm not going to sugarcoat it. I've broken bones before and it didn't hurt as bad. I wasn't aware a knee could be that sore. But then again, my meniscus was totally detached from the bone and they had to fish it out of the back of my knee and reattach it with stitches and some biodegradeable screws (never heard of such a thing in my life). I never imagined how difficult it is to do every day shit with a bad wheel. I couldn't imagine how difficult it must be for somebody with an amputation.

Gotdamn, I quit reading at exactly that moment.......fuck that!  It will just have to hurt.  Enough booze will make it dull anyways.

Apparently, I missed a post.  Knee surgery?  Really?

No no, getting ready to leave in a few minutes.

You just jinxed AUT1...now he's going to be an amputee.

Once again

This fucking guy!

I walked around bone on bone (no homo) for like 6 months, which probably made things worse. I couldn't take the pain anymore so I had it looked at. If there really is something that needs to be fixed, get it done man. Me waiting to see somebody and get it fixed is probably why I'm in the situation I'm in right now.

so far my ailments have been two passing kidney stones.  4 years apart...kinda like the Olympics but no medal to show for the pain.  the first stone was a 3 mm and the second one, just this past summer, was 5 mm.

Drink yourself some flaxseed tea.  Consistency of snot but better than stones.

Knew a guy who ran a body shop.  He passed a big ole stone one day and was bleeding all over himself.  Sweatin' like a hog and about to pass out. He was getting one of his guys to carry him to the doc and this lady says, "Can't you write me an estimate before you go?".  He said, If I had the strength to punch her...

Fortunately, I've never had the pleasure.

I second that emotion.  Good luck.

Got my MRI results back and the good news is no surgery on the back.  The bad news is I'm old.  I'm ready for 2011 to be over.  This year has set a record for sticking, probing, X-raying, MRI'ing, therapying, cracking and generally hurtin' all over like a mofo.

Ok,  Good news is that my knee doesn't have to be cut on........right now.  The other bit of good news is that I am still young and you are, well, old fuckers.

                :haha:

I have "normal wear and tear" on my knee.  He said that since the pain is where it's located and by looking at the xrays that we don't have to do the knife, at least for a while hopefully.  I have to do some physical therapy daily for the next 3 months.  So some guy came in with that rubber band thing, showed me how to do my exercises.  Since I am not "heavy" according to the doc, hopefully we can get my quads to limber up some and not cause as much pressure on my knee.  If it's better in 3 months, we drop to 3 to 4 times a week.  Bad news is eventually, the knife is going to be the only option, but not right now.  He said that should be the last option we explore.

The little Xray tech was smoking.  I really couldn't work this into the conversation though:

Yeah, um, you're kinda hot and some people from the Internet would love for me to snap some pics and post them, what do you say?

No surgery, will come later in life.  Physical Therapy will hopefully take care of this.  Xray tech was hot, but no pics.

I really wanted to, but there was no way to take one in the XRay room without the flash going off so it would have been more than obvious.  I live to fight another day.

Already walking around with no crutches today. Not really needing any of my pain meds either. Which is pretty surprising, considering after my first surgery I would have cut my leg off with some rusty bolt cutters to make my knee stop hurting.
