Time for a little humor...all of you with back injuries, it got me to wonder
why all ruptured discs are L3, L4 etc...I wonder if anyone has an H5??

Wow all

I know this all too well, In 1990 I ruptured my L-3 disc and had a slight
buldging disc in my L4, I had micro surgrury for the ruptured disc that
year, in
Dayton Ohio. I have been great ever since.. I now will not pick up anything
hevey, I suffered with major back pain for 6 months befor I had the surgery,
They did give me a booklet of what exercise to do to help my lower back, and
I
do not do it every Day like I should but I do it 4-5 times a month.


Back surgery to day is not as bad as it was 20-35 years ago!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
depending on what you need done!!!!
I have not had no pain ever since!!

Luckily its a dull, low-level pain that you learn to tune out. Every once in
a
while I'll tweak it real bad and become debilitated for a spell - this
usually
occurs after prolonged periods of relative inactivity.


The key, at least for me is to stay active on a regular basis. Surfing does
that for me. Meteorite hunting sounds like a great way to stay active as
long
as you stay away from nasty spiders and lifting 327 lb Glorieta Mtn irons by
yourself.
