Medical Xray's and MRI's are WAY cool too look at.

who else has lower back pain?......yes you.. The Old Mens Club.

I had back pain for years.

Turns out it was my fit in the 944.

When I got something else as a daily driver, back pain went away.

I had thought that when I stopped working as a machinist and went into engineer, I'd have back pain relief. Nope.

Been there, not currently there. :)

yes
herniated disk in lower back.

the spine institute down in Charleston SC now has an out patient fix for it I do believe.


also be very careful who works on your back.
my wife takes care of an old lady that the docs REALLY messed her back up.

Ouch Dave....best to you. The dude on the right above on the shirt ain't got no backbone...so that ain't you ;)!

I feel you pain, buddy, believe me. I had surgery about 20 years ago to remove some spurs on my vertebra that were impinging into the nerve paths exiting my spine. On top of that, I'm living with two completely dried out discs, flattened to about the thickness of a piece of notebook paper. Every now and then my vertebra will settle into an off-center location and effectively clamp down on the nerve paths. I cannot tell you how special that is. Er, yeah - I can. You are finding out. Good luck to you, sir.

Who here doesn't push the "edge" every once in a while?


It's so easy, even a Caveman can do it.



GLORY IS FOREVER...........PAIN IS TEMPORARY...............and Chicks dig scars.


yes. look at the scale of dunage.

Maybe not related to the actual skeletal structure of my back and the health of the discs between my vertebrae, but I feel I've not had more potential for problems because of a job I had during high school starting in my junior year and continuing for three years. Namely it was loading trucks with milk products four nights a week into diesel truck going out to other towns. I would load up to 4K cases of milk a night - quart cases weighed 55 lbs., half gallon cases weighed 67 lbs. I think I weighed around 150+ at the time. They came off a conveyor belt into the trailers where I stacked them six to eight high and pushed them back into the trailer in rows. After a decent time of doing this, I developed back muscles like loaves of French bread. That has stayed with me throughout my life and I think served me well. I attribute that at least partially, to the fact I've not had any back problems - knock on wood.

Me too! Doing physical therapy now. Nine sessions in and it really seems to be helping.

My back and neck were great until I hit 40 years old and a tree on dirt bike. Haven’t been the same since.
