Phoenix, prayers for a successful surgery and that your pain will be manageable. I would be eating all the chocolate biscuits in Adelaide.

Sorry to read about your scumbag neighbours MantaLady. I wouldn't worry about the arrest, it's too ridiculous for words. I would be tempted to carry out a bit of sneaky escalation but then i'm not always a paragon of good advice.

PhoenixJ - I have commented elsewhere but good luck, you are a great advert for sobriety and deserve a break.

Physio lady figures it's not pinched nerve but rather an irritated L3 nerve. She poked, prodded and twisted me many more ways than the doc at the injury clinic did. I apparently have alot of tightness in my lower back. I have some exercises to do then back on Monday for re-assement and more excercises.

Hospital biscuits are crap

Free utube docos!

Feeling a t
a

d

weird,

I shall say this only once

Surgery done

Much diff than surgery b4 Xms- that was a circus- preop assessments, 3-different dates in Unit, half a day tests preop- ECG etc, then later- surgery.
Including commute time- around 40 hours over4 weeks

The notification, admission, tests and surgery this time all done in 28 hours flat.

The anxiety (flashbacks etc) much worse than being here

I was given the 'airline hostess ' type talk on side effects, but this time mentioned strokes, death...and maybe needing to gouge out most of my little finger meat and putting a wire in. And maybe needing to do a deep skin harvest in the groin area- but alas, nay gentle readers- small graft near birthday dent, in until at least Monday

glad over
