Back Pain & Yard Sale



Hubby has been in the bed since Friday morning. His back has went out. Started hurting at the first of the week and by Friday morning he was in Chiropractor's office. It is bad. Chiropractor helps him a lot. We used to go to the emergency room. The doctors always wanted to just give him pain pills and send him home to rest.. Maybe that is why our country has a big Prescription Pain Pill Problem. He uses a chiropractor now. Plus the doctors 20 years ago wanted to operate on his back and telling him he would have to change occupations. He was a mechanic for about 25 years. He has had only about 6 flare ups in about 30 years. He is in construction now and has only had this flare up in 5 years. He has a herniated disk. It is going to take it a while to get better. He has taken over the bedroom. Has the night stand full of his stuff and I had to bring a TV tray into the room to put MORE stuff on. LOL Men and sickness or hurting..

We did end up having a good yard sale turnout on Saturday! I sold about everything.. My battery is going dead on laptop.. Ohhhh Light is orange now... Till Later...

Chiropractic care is AWESOME. Hope he heals up quickly! He could check into some homeopathic remedies for pain. Might help...

I hope that hubby is up and better soon! My DH is home sick as well...kinda like taking care of a sick child, ya know?

Glad to hear that the yard sale was a success! Use some of the extra cash for more stash :-)

Hope he feels better soon!

My husband goes to the chiropractor every other week for 'maintenance'. Works for him too.

I suffer from back pain for 4 years and the doctor prescribed this medication (Vicodin) for being an analgesic for pain and while he says Findrxonline that this medicine can be dangerous because of side effects, take it because it helps me cope with my pain and although it is now easy to buy online without a prescription, I prefer to do it safely and I request my prescription to buy at a pharmacy here in Maryland, and avoided trouble and I buy my drugs legally.
