My mom was popping pills like mad. One day she sat at the counter and counted them out and she noticed she was taking a lot of vicodin daily. That was the day she called the surgeon for her surgery. She hasn't looked back since.

Vicodin, eh? And here House is my hero.........:eyebrows:

Thanks, folks. My back has suddenly gotten better. I suspect it knew that I as going to have cortisone shot into it and it decided to get better fast. But I have never had such pain. God, it was awful. Green, I'm keeping my Percocet.

I used to need an epidural steroid injection every 3 months for years. I went to a chiropractor for the first time in December for spinal decompression therapy (twice a week for 12 weeks and weekly since). Finally the treatment and the weight loss came together and I have experienced a 90% reduction in pain. My worst pain was in my legs. Unfortunately they are still weak--but I feel great!

My best friend just had the first cortisone shot. She is like a new person. She has a herniation of L-4, L-5 at an S-1 station. She had surgery on the L-4 about 2 years ago, now it is the next one needing it--but the shot did wonders! She was afraid she was headed to another surgery....but the shot was great for her!

Worked wonders on my FIL's knees too.

If it helps it beats being fuzzy headed when you don't wanna be!!

Hope your back reprieve is permanent!!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
