Sorry to hear your back is acting up, Chris. I hope it continues to improve. I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for you. Come to think of it, that makes it kinda hard to type as well. :D Hope Bob and Ebby are doing their fair share of the household chores. ;)
I can empathise with you too. I get spasms every now and then (gee wonder why...when I lug 50lb bags of litter around) and they are excruciating. I use ice for a day or so, and try to do as little as possible for 24 hours. Actually impossible when potties await every single day. So scream away...I hear your pain. :(
Boy, I do sympathise with you! My back spasams out every once in a while and I can't do anything except sit in one place and hope I don't fall over! I can't even type most of the time. Whats really cruddy is when my back decides to be mean to me while Im driving...once I had to call the hubby from the cell phone to help me out of the car lol!
Feel better, ok! Remus sends some headbumpies for you, hope he doesn't knock you over!
*Smacks* your internet connect. Be good darn you!
Sending very gentle {{{hugs}}}, Chris. Back pain is horrible. Hope you are feeling well soon.
Sorry to hear that yur back is acting up! I hope it s shortlived problem and that you're back to normal right quick!

My walk has a strong list to the left hand side, I call it my Quasimodo shuffle! :D
It's at times like this I miss having someone around, a good gigle is the best medicine ... plus of course it would be nice to have a cup of tea made for me now and again, the dog and cat fed and messes cleaned up ... :D
slick, the attached picture, taken a few minutes ago, shows how much caring I get from them! :DQuote:
... except to recommend some serious Bob and Ebby therapy.
Thanks everyone for your kind thoughts and wishes, it means a lot. :)

They are obviously in some kind of meditative trance calling upon the medicinal forces to reach down and heal you from within. :DQuote:

You know, I think you may be right! How sweet!:)
Back problems??? Oh, I can symapthize, Chris! Hope you're doing a bit better. I'd make you a cuppa and clean up your messies if only I were closer:) Can't count on those kids! lol!:D Take care friend and don't worry, we'll help you catch up:) {{{HUGS}}} Sandra
Oh Chris I have had back problems too and at times it has sent me right to bed. The fact that you are on the computer at all is testament to the addictive nature of Pet Talk! LOL! I had to laugh at the picture of the two furry ones also! It looks like you are on your own here! I hope you start to feel much better real soon.
Chris, when I attempt to walk with the walker, I walk like Igor (coming mustah!)Quote:

Thanks Pam & Sandra. :) David, think we would make a good double act! :D
Oh, me too Pam! But sometimes bed is just not the right place to be for me ...well, if you had seen me getting in last night and out this morning it would have at least given you a good giggle. :DQuote:

Anyway, I have had a problem with my back for close to 40 years and as soon as it began I'd to get straight off to bed. When my old GP retired the new one had a different take on it, rest, yes, but also, using commonsense, try and move around as much as possible. Also to go easy on the painkillers because sometimes more damage is done when the pain is masked.
Over the years, especially in the last 18 living alone, I have worked out various ways of getting things done, slow, and I should think very funny if anyone was watching, but what is the saying 'necessity is the mother of invention' . :D But I do have to admit it, most of the time it is because I am too stupidly stubborn and independent for my own good!

Hang in there, Chris. I have sympathy for anyone who suffers back pain! I had it one time and didn't know what it was for the longest time (it was neck related and hurt in my arm and shoulder)!!! Regardless, it is hard to function!!!
Hope those nurses will wake up and help you out a little!!!!

How are you feeling tonight Chris? Much better I hope.
Reading your last post gave me a wonderful metal picture of all us back-pain-suffering PTers, linking arms and trying to walk in a line - what a hoot!! There's you doing your Quasimodo-hunchy-type walk - David doing his Igor crab-wise-shuffle - Micki and Gini holding each other upright - QSL and DJFWolf doing the bottom shuffle and me losing my knickers - now I don't know about you but I'd pay good money to see that!!! :D :D :D
Very gentle {{{Hugs}}} - ow, ow (Sorry).
Lynne
Those kitties look very sypathetic to me! I mean come one...they cleaned your place up all spit-shined and spiffy looking, and they deserve a nap after all that hard work!:D No sypathy from the ingrates here *sigh*:rolleyes:
