I've picked up way too many engine blocks off the floor.

In June I managed a 12mm herniation in my L5S1. Had to take a few months off. Everyone I knew was screaming I needed surgery, but there's a physical therapist in town that specializes in spine care. If it weren't for them, I'd be in bad shape right now. Currently zero pain.

If your MRI shows a herniation, head to PT, don't do anything else yet.

That photobucket image is so blurry it looks more like an AC compressor than it does a balancer.

I don't know how or why this happened. I woke up with a pain in my lower back, sat down on a low wooden stool and almost wasn't able to stand up. I have a history of kidney stones and was sure I had another one. After a couple days went to the VA ER. (I am a disabled Veteran). They ran me thru a CAT Scan, and said it was L-3 in my spine, no kidney stones found. I was scheduled for a MRI last week, but was too sick in bed to have it done, they rescheduled the MRI to October 25th.
