8th & 9th September 2018 Boinger Bash --- Event and Payment Details

[TonyL]

I have indeed had an MRI Scan which is why i'm rather concerned to be honest. Some of the wording: Degeneration on L3/4, L4/5, and L5 S1 discs. Also degeneration to corresponding facet joints. posterolateral bulge disc L4/5 with annular tear indenting on the intrathecal sac and narrowing the exit. This was from just over a year ago and the conclusion is basically the onset and progression of osteoarthritis possibly caused by a back injury snowboarding some years back, playing golf and my job in the general building game. Possibly hereditary too as my dad suffered severely from his early 50's until he passed away at 69.

Ouch, ouch, ouch and OUCH!

Bloody hell, Mike, I thought mine were bad.....that's really crap.

The very best of luck for some proper speedy and successful intervention matey to get you feeling better.

Thinking of you Mikey.

Cheers mate. It will improve in time for a few months before something else triggers it.

Hi Mike,
I hope it settles down for you soon. The change of work should help that.
Mine went 3 years ago and the mri scan shows number 3 disc to have prolapsed onto my spine and I must have bent down whilst lifting something heavy which nipped the disc and cut it in two so I have half of it resting on my spinal chord causing me some lovely sciatica. The specialist told me that the disc on my spine should disintegrate in time. They didn't want to operate as it could have made things worse.
The physio gave me some palate exercises to do which brought me on leaps and bounds (figuratively speaking).
As for exercise, the only one I'm ok with is cycling.

Cheers mate. I'm ok with the cycling once the muscles go out of spasm. For the moment i'm out walking regularly and doing the recommended stretching exercises from the physio. They've said to me in time as my buggered discs degenerate more and harden up although movement will be more restricted the pain may be less. Also same as you they've said its a high risk operation for where my problem is so avoiding that for the moment.
