Serious bummer. I hope it's not too bad and just extra rest will help. In the meantime, just chill and listen to us and our craziness.

Pain doc say we need to wait for the swelling to go down to do any imaging & tests. At least I am off work (seasons over). Have a few parties to work which pays for my health insurance.

Another sucky thing about this is that the wife asked me if I wanted a SS chugger pump & a 50# sack of 2-row for Christmas
Too bad it wasn't a bedroom activity so that you could say the pain was worth it. :whistle:

I know what you're going through. My back acts up for no reason, for the dumbest things, and with no warning.

Years ago my mother had to call 911 to get her up when her back acted up. In the tub... No pics, sorry, it would cause bad dreams. Paramedics had to go to counseling.

What a bummer HB3.

Did you get a voodoo curse put on you or what? I'm thinking you need a witch doctor not a pain doctor. Someone out there is dumping serious bad mojo on your brewing. :starwars:
