I think you must vigorously investigate all of the aformentioned rememdies mentioned above. To assist in translating this thread hijack that has occurred, I have developed a pictoral representation of the "remedies" proposed by Misters Raven and Dangles, with a dash of additional common sense

: What the doctors say, some are actually trying to help people instead of just in for the money

: Excercise to get those endorphins in shape

: The getting laid part often fosters enhanced, deeper - so there is a double whammy

(just make sure you have the "unexpected widget prevention device engaged")

I'm hoping to avoid surgery but my laundry list came out two weeks ago:

2 Degenerative Disks, Arthritis in the lower back, a Pelvic Tilt (not the Elvis version ).... This is just the first round, and only with my back

(sometimes it's the only thing worth doing while "IN" that much pain with a huge R.O.I. (return on investment)

yer makin me blush.... Actually i think of you in entirely the same way.... and since i am still so broke,
i couldnt even afford the postage to send a plug for the BM benefit auction....(money's tighter here at my house than super girls behind... so that "post" was you could say...."my contribution"
to help dave towards a speedier recovery.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Today: i was again diagnosed with very high blood pressure measured today @ 190 over 120 which is the dead zone...I am ripe for a heart attack bigtime and so i was put on
toprol -xL or else i was gonna croak....plus i had to get some more muscle relaxers because i have this knotted muscle in my shoulder /back area that grips me like a gorilla with pain off the freakin scale from my neck down to my hand....
on a scale of 1- 10 i'm at 11....i went to bed last night after sharing some things i know, then had to get back up do that nasty hot topical ointment routine -- wait ....then grab a hot shower to wash it off so i could go back to bed ,and not fumigate the wifey in bed.

a little Raven history........
for awhile there ...about 2 years ago...
every time i lifted my fishing rod to feel my lure or bait....and maybe move it a pinch...or try to feel for a fish,,,,my right arm would instantly go numb and it would burn like in my veins...my pinky finger and the next one to it would be so numb i couldn't even tell they were there. That is the worst thing i could imagine....too .... to not be able to fish... way to excruciating...i've had dozens of physical therapy appointments to correct this crap a few years ago and now it has "returned with a vengence." so it sucks to be ME....not meaning to elicit sympathy...((i'm watching a wild turkey outside my window as i type this ...)) if these new friggan pills don't work its back to new england rehab again for more therapy........

....i'm considered a miracle person there because i can walk again after exploding my ankle with over
2000 pounds of force.That took 2 years of therapy 3 days a week.

i used to climb mountains for fun,,,..i used to take off my shoes and run silently up mountains like an Indian and one day in california at daybreak i encountered 100 + deer ...they are so minature (bambi size) compared to a new england white tail ...so they can hide better in the chapparel (manzanita bushes) ...seeing them i instantly sat down against a tree to watch ....seeing at the time... maybe a dozen....then as i sat motionless...the woods came alive...
...they were virtually everywhere yet so camoflaged it was like they were cloaked in STAR TREK ..... INcredible...an experience of a LIFETIME.

back here on the east coast.....
i used to have to go to home depot every damn day to shop for my customers...now after a trip there...i almost have to crawl from my car into the house... my neighbor saw this one day and almost called 911

i'm slowly getting better...but its a huge endeavor and i have to really work at it ....so i have to know and learn every trick in the book....

yesterday.............evening
i'm still so stubborn being Scottish -> that i still do dumb stuff like trying to carry a whole friggan tree back to the house because i can't afford to buy a freakin cord of wood right now... good thing i'm surrounded by woods and lotsa dead snags... the snow is way to deep (10 inches) already to use my dump cart and the old tiller to tow it...
....then... the freakin pull rope on the chain saw pulled out and wouldn't retract....i was like WTF and with size 13 wide feet -big like yers...i couldnt fit my darn snow boot into the handle of the chain saw to yank it and had to clamp the chain saw between my legs in my crotch... and do mini pulls... thats a hairy way to start a chain saw i'll can tell yah
