Yes, I've been away

In the past couple of weeks I have:
1. Had a visit with the ortho-dude. My degenerative disc disease is back, this time in my lower back, with pain radiating to my upper thighs, rather than neck/shoulders. I'm now on a couple of different meds, a muscle relaxer & a steroid. The pain level varies widely throughout the day.

2. Ortho-dude said I could go do the nature walks that I do for the first of the two back-to-back camping events I typically staff in early June. Those "propbably" wouldn't make things any worse. So I went, and he seems to have been correct in that assessment.

3. Had two physical therapy appointments.

4. Did not have the 'net connection I thought I would have at the campground; hence, didn't manage to keep up with my 100 years ago today in history posts. Will be catching up on those as I can; will be posting four after I finish this note.

Well, when this happened to me back in 2010, I had to have neuro-surgery. Pretty much took care of the problem until about 6 weeks ago: this time around, it's in my lower back, rather than upper. Ortho-dude says no surgery this time, so let's hope he's right, and things get better with the meds & PT.

Hey if the pain continues downward you'll be able to tell someone they're a real pain in the ass and mean it! Well I hope it doesn't move but the meds and PT chases it right outta town!!

Wishing you a speedy, pain free recovery.

I hope you and your medical staff find the right mix of treatments for your condition.
