Not this sh*t AGAIN!!!

Damn back is bad again. I had major surgery 4-5 years ago to correct some slipped discs that were actually pushing into my spinal cord. I was essentially paralyzed from the rib cage down, but the neurosurgeon said everything went well and I should be back to normal.

Other than some pesky swelling that nearly required another procedure I was done, except I stupidly skipped physical rehab.

Well I never have gotten back to normal, tattoorhino and salty can attest to the difficulty I have walking but I'm thankful not to be as bad off as I was- until recently.

Don't know what triggered it, but I'm having very similar symptom to those per surgery in roughly the same area but this time it's getting bad quickly. Saturday we kept for Myrtle Beach and I packed the car, today my wife had to push me around in a wheelchair to get around barefoot Landing.

I have an appt with my chiro on Monday, but know he can probably only offer me temporary pain relief. I'm about 100% certain I'll be heading back under the knife for another excruciating surgery and long recovery.

The guy who did the last operation doesn't appear to be with this practice anymore, so it'll be interesting to find out what happened to him and if there's any logical connection to my lack of proper recovery.

As if I haven't asked enough times, please keep me and my wife in your prayers as we fight this battle again.

Thanks,

John

Man, I guess I am lucky. Never have had any kind of health problems. I suppose I will just fall over dead one day.

Good luck though.

I second this...never broke a bone in my body. But I have heard the more healthy you are as a youngin, the more problems you will have in the future.

The back is a tough one. When I was a young man I always asked guys who were retiring and healthy how they made it and most of the answers were to take care of your back.

I have always done that but maybe I should have payed attention to my waistline too.

    • So to suggest that our offensive weapons might not be as horrible as being claimed if we were to have Josh Allen throwing to them instead of Bryce is a stretch? Maybe they would be better, maybe not. But I'm not going to keep saying we need more weapons and more this and more that with a QB that struggles to get 200 yards passing in a game.  You're right, our receiving corp was ranked in the bottom 3rd of the league. Who was throwing to them? A bottom 3rd QB.  If the team wants to get better it has to be serious about the QB position. We aren't and no amount of adding weapons is going to solve the fact Bryce is a bottom tier QB or that the most serious camp competition he has ever faced was Andy Dalton.  If Carolina fans were watching any other franchise entrench themselves so vehemently around this level of QB production, we'd be laughing like he'll and waiting for our chance to play them twice a year. 
    • I’ll also say agin, this is why I think we’re in a great spot this year to trade down, and maybe meeting with all these WRs is a smokescreen to try and make a WR needy team over trade to get our pick so we don’t take the guy they want. While at the same time, if Downs falls outside the Top 10, I’d be comfortable with darn near any trade involving our 2027 1st, to move up and get him.  He’s going to be one of th best Safeties in the game for years to come.
    • Teams we are better than in regards to the wr room without a doubt and there are other teams you could easily debate Ravens Pats bills miami pats jets ravens  browns jags (debatable for sure) titans Chiefs Raiders Giants (debatable) Saints  Skins
