ruptured disc in my neck/upper back!!!!

damn!! that was funny man!!

and i just turned 29!! down hill from here,huh??

 

damn Will sorry to hear that. Good luck on the mri and anything else that comes your way.

 

You are getting an early start man. Your junk will quit working the morning of your 30th birthday. Don't worry.

 

damn.....in that case....i reckon i will have to start working out again, if i have to i guess i have to!!!

 

thanks man!!!

 

Yo dude, good luck with dealing with that. From what I hear it's very curable and the treatment options will have people being pain free.

 

lol When you're over the hill whatever don't hurt, don't work.

 

If done right. Aw hell, it can be pain-free if done WRONG too, but only cuz they damage the nerves and you just can't feel the pain.

 

one of these days......that'll be my new motto!!!

 

Aw geez Will that really sucks. I hope you can skip the surgery, but mostly I just hope you end up pain- and numbness-free real soon! Glad you got in to see someone though, even if it is bad news--that way the treatment can start sooner and you'll get better sooner!

 

That sucks.....good luck with all that. Back pain treatments have always been hit or miss in my experience.

 

thanks!! i had to do something......the numbness and all was really getting on my nerves, and it sucks that i cant barely pick a set of keys up with my left hand......to damn weak from the pinched nerve i reckon.

 

yeah.......and im hoping its a hit this time.

 

If it is required that you need the knife, get a quote on how much it is and I'll do it for half price, a TW special !!

Seriously get well soon.

 

tw special,huh??? you get rep for that!!!

 

LOL, that's pretty funny. I would give you some rep, but I'm all out.

 

can u explain this numb feeling in ur arm and thumb?? sometimes i get a numb feeling on my left arm and fingers, esp after i work out

 

actually, i can feel it start in my upper back area of my spine, and it goes down the back side of my arm,kinda wraps around and has my middle and pointing fingers numb. when i turn a certain way, i feel it push on the nerve more and the fingers actually start twitching. so thats basically the pinched nerve.

 

DAMN, well get better man!! now u got me nervous and thinking if i have a pinched nerve

 

you'll know if you have a pinched nerve...........you'll have alot of numbness whereever the nerve is pinched at. if yours isnt numb all the time, you could be possibly pinching the nerve while you work out. do you stretch any before hand??
