My bad back is back...

After a month of lifting and lugging, between the bathroom renovation and expanding the dog yard, my sciatica reared its ugly head. Today is day 2 of muscle relaxers and NSAIDs and I do feel better then I did yesterday. I go again for a follow up adjustment tomorrow with the chiropractor. I have been "laying low" and not doing much, though there is loads to do before I am scheduled to leave on Sunday. Hopefully if everything keeps going in this positive direction, I should be OK for the National.

You've got my sympathy! My back acts up from over-use too, and it can really, really HURT! Hope you continue to improve so you can forget all about it by Sunday!

Hurry and get well. That back thing is just awful. Sending good thoughts your way!

After back surgery and numerous years of rehab I've finally found the greatest NSAID of all time. Mobic 15mg once a day. ASK FOR IT!

No goofy side effects (yes, too late for you we know...) non-drowsy...

I can't walk without it...
