    That totally sucks. As a person with constant back pains. I feel your pain sorta speak. :eek:

    This may or may not help. My Brother ruptured a disk in his low back playing semi-pro basketball back in the 80's. He avoided the surgery and lived on pain pills. In the mid 90's he finally had the surgery & has not had any pain since. After the surgery, he said " I wish I would have had it sooner." He was in and out of the hospital in no time. Now the procedure probably is even less avaisive than back then.

    Good luck,
    Sean

    I am following Roland's lead on getting here late, but I really hope that you feel better soon. I can't imagine how much of a pain in the neck that is...

    dude, honestly....i have a pretty high tolerance for pain, but this ranks right up there with when i got really hot grease spilled all over my hands and arms.........still held the pan, but i could see my skin bubbling......and this is 3 or 4 times more painful......to me anyway. sometimes,its a dull,nagging pain, and then the rest of the time, if i havent had any pan pills, its shgarp and continuous!! it makes everytrhing in the neck/upper back/shoulder region hurt like a sumbitch......and the numb arm and fingers are just extra i guess:D!!

    ew - that is definitely not on my to-do list. I had 600deg grease on my arms (was a cook for years), and there is only one thing I've had happen to me that was worse than that (and it wasn't far off).

    Good luck with it. Keep the pain pills poppin'. :)
