Don't you just feel alone when your back is out?
You are unable to:
cough,
sneeze,
fart,
shower,
go to the tiolet,
wipe your own fanny,
get a drink, a pillow, some food.
Do you get tired of looking up at the ceiling for hours on end?
Listenening to the quiet in the middle of the night
and
the "heartbeat" in your sciatic nerve?
Yeah, my sciatica is flared up big time today from the past 3 hard days of workout/surf.
On a scale of 10 it's a 4.
By tomorrow I will be at 2 and Sunday 0
And so I start over again with:
mild stretching
hot packs,
Mineral ice
and the Back Bubble traction
It's just the game I play...............
24 years of dealing with back pain, sciatica and scoliosis....rehab-pain, activity-pain rehab-pain, activity,less pain, rehab-pain, activity-NO PAIN
....and hope to hell I can surf another swell!!

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...

Often times the pain will shift back and forth from the right "dimple" to the Left "dimple", then back again..
This scenario, I found out is a good thing.
The body is trying to balance and adjust itself.
