I'm kind of bummed right now

It will get better, hang tough.

If everyone is saying it it has to be true! Things will get better.

It's nothing some strange pu$$y won't cure.

What you know about that?

Everything cycles...and indeed, things will improve.

We're (still) here for you...

Agree. Not sure what kind of pain you are in (back)...but rehab (light stretching and rehab weight lifting) can help rebuild the muscles.

Thanks everyone, but warmer weather doesn't help right now. My back pain is not muscle originating, but nerve. I have a root nerve that is being pinched very tightly, and it has been causing me continual pain since Nov. 11th 2008. A few months of pain everyday, and night, has really been wearing me down. Right now my foot feels like it's being poked with hundreds of little needles, and I can't feel my big toe at all.

I usually can hop on a bike and go for a ride to cheer me up. Right now if I get my leg over the bike, I can't easily get back off. I can ride until I completely loose the feeling in my left leg, and that makes shifting very difficult.

I certainly wasn't trying to whine. I know things will get better. I just needed to vent a little last night. I'm calling the VA right now to discuss other options to get me back into my life.

Tru , you know the weather up here isn't helping . You just need a break , Go take a vacation to Mexico or somewhere warm . It helped me out . I hope your back gets better soon ,. Lets get a dinner night together on the NW thread .

Have you ever heard of an AIR SHIFTER ?? They make them shift both directions !

I'll have to look into that frisbee. I do agree that we need to do a few GTG dinners in the PNW. That might help keep us mentally more stable that usual.

I just got off the phone. The doctor will be calling me back later today.

On a brighter note, my new Zune 120 is out for delivery on a big brown truck. Good timing because I ran out of room on my Zune 80, and it's all music.

Have you tried an inversion table?

 

[TruWrecks]

I have a Teeter Hang-ups 950. It works for a few minutes after I get off of it. It's great while I'm hanging upside down. There is only so much I can do while using it.

Hang in there bro. It will get better
I know that is easier said than done.
