In the last few days .....

It has been a couple of days since I saw the consultant at Lincoln Hospital, regards the painful back. With a several days concideration, it is obvious that the situation is as normal. With some points good and others bad.

Firstly the bad. I now have treatment regime and a lot of stretches and exercises to do. Although , in the end, exercise was going to be a potential goal. In the consultants opinion I had actually (probibly ) had one, or more, spinal discs either deform or bulge, hence causing severe pain. And it's a contender for the recent "Kidney Infections" culprit. That said I am now suffering from the cure, not the original condition. The discs appear to have restored themselves to something like normal, but the scaring and damage caused in that process is the reason for the present malaise.

The good points?

The good points are that there is a solution. And a realatively straightforward one at that. There is quite a few weeks work to do. With the said exercises, a little "proper" training and a careful eye in the future it looks like we will be able to manage this problem fairly easierly.

That said, everything had to be reassessed in 7 weeks time ( and if they can find the original missing x-ray) so things may yet again change .

But for now, I'm fairly happy. Sore, but happy.
