LOL ! Thing is, if that's what happens to me for 12 - 18 weeks, I will loose my house and everything else. Can you say AFLAC ? I can, but, I don't have it. All of this will be my fault for not going to the Doc when it first started acting up. Oh well, all I can do is hope the diagnosis is not that serious.

Good, I'm glad to see someone is doing well in this economy.

thanks bro !!

Well, just got back from Doctors. All he could see in X-rays are some small bone spurs. So MRI next week. He drained some fluid to have tested and relieve some of the pain. Also shot it up with steroids. No matter what, atleast it doesn't sound like too long of down time, which is good. The other good thing is, I have a wedding to go to tomorrow and I don't have to get on the dance floor and look like a fool!

Look on the bright side. Now you can ask your doctor for the form to have the DMV give you a handicap placard. Now you get to pull up and part right up front, everywhere you go. At least until you heal up.

I've got one of those. Kinda feel guilty, though, getting out of this big truck, but I walk with a cane most days.

Had the MRI yesterday, freaking nitemare trying to lay perfectly still with the pain.LOL Anyway, I called the Doc's office later in the day because I can't deal with this pain much longer (the Advil gel caps help, but just don't cut it) and I didn't want to wait until the 14th for the results appointment. Well turns out, the MRI tech/radiologist whatever he's called, wants more pics and recommended a CT scan as well. So now i have to go back for both of those on the 13th and wait 2 more days(15th) to see the Doc to go over the results. (who happens to be on vacation this week).
