GG Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 The neurosurgeon said I had some very conflicting symptoms. The pain was incredible and it was unbelievable that for two days this weekend it was completely gone and I can't for the life of me figure out why. Time for some process of elimination.

Chef Jim Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 River rock That was the weird thing. The river rock !@#$ed up my lower back but the siatica was completely gone. So my back can only register one pain at a time?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC Tom Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Time for some process of elimination. I suppose constipation can cause back pain, so it's worth a shot. Don't let us know how it works out, though. Damn, man. Sorry to hear you're in such rough shape. Hope it gets better soon. Back pain is the worst. Actually, having your leg shattered in three places by a 1-ton boulder while a leopard rips off your face is the worst. Back pain's a close second, though.

That had to be the episode where she was "threatened" by what had to be the world's most unenterprising mountain lion. "She's stuck in a snare! Get her! C'mon...what are you waiting for? What the !@#$ kind of predator are you!" Laziest plot point ever. "Cougar stares blankly at Kim Bauer, does nothing." Somebody had to be high when they came up with that arc.

Exactly... and it wasn't just one episode, it was two or maybe even three of her stuck in that damn trap and then she's saved by Johnny Drama -- which made me lose my **** laughing.

Bob in Mich Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 It sounds like your lifting of the river rocks may have caused a vertebra to move relative to rest of them. Was it a shift of a vertebra that cause the 'nerve pinch' in the first place or is that caused by something else? If the new shift took the pressure off the nerve, you may get some relief 'downstream' in your leg but the nerve itself is likely now 'bruised' and still painful. OK, pay on your way out.

Whether legit or not, you are coming across as a crusader and that is frowned upon here. Lighten up and join other discussions that aren't pot related.
