Put Your Ailments Here

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.

Sad ain't it? Growing old is only for alpha-males.

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.

My left knee gives me trouble, and I'm only 28. It's from all that sucking dick... No, but really, can't wait until I get older.

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.
