So I got some bone chopped away in my lower back. Always stayed clear of touching my lower back because of the weight on the spine. Heard horror stories of folk who had it worked on. Would get epidurals every few years instead that worked. Thing is, last couple were difficult to inject from being an old geezer. So I bit the bullet. Doc talked me into getting bone cut away to allow nerves to flow through those pinched disks. I’d never get metal added tho. Never heard a success story because of the weight on that part of spine. Have had neck redone which worked wonders. Actually, kind of turning into a cyborg. Lol. Was invincible growing up and it’s caught up. Yet still pretty healthy believe it or not. Being in sobriety most of my adult life has saved me from illnesses. Not broken chit tho from living a hard life. Anyway, the pain sucks this time and don’t do pain meds. Such is life of an old head addict. Just thank God always for great insurance and having my back 24/7 throughout the years. I stopped picking a fight with him a few years back and he’s been the coolest. Only one will, and it sure ain’t mine. Mine gets me in trouble. Letting another with your best interests in mind works best. Not into religions, just into him. Easy street with a bit of past pain in the mix. Figure another 15 to 20 good healthy years lie ahead as long as I let him do the driving. Works for me.
P.S. a good diet with little sugars works wonders. And no vices such as smoking.
