Last time he checked in, he said that he was feeling a bit better... hopefully he's on the mend.  :good

I talked to him yesterday and he said he has to start physical therapy...I think he will start feeling better after he starts his therapy.

He was in a lot of pain at the river all weekend. :(

As long as he sticks with it, he should feel quite a bit better...  :good

Thanks everyone for your concern. :)  I've had back pain for a couple of months.  Even though I've been very careful with it, it's got progressively worse. :(  I tried to set up a doctor appointment before OP6C-IX, but scheduling problems at work made it difficult.  When I tried to make an appointment on Monday, my doctor sent me to the E.R. :eek  Evidently, there were a couple of clues indicating there was an underlying problem causing the back pain.  They did an EKG, a CAT scan, and a blood test.  My blood had some issues though. :eek  The E.R. doctor suggested I have a Creatine test.  I guess my kidneys have been overworked. :eek  I will set up physical therapy tomorrow and have a bone scan in a few weeks.  That's when they inject radioactive material in you and scan your body.  In my case the material they will use targets bones.  In the meantime, I'm taking muscle relaxers and Vicodin, which seems to help alot. :good

Doug,
Hope you get better soon. Jaime (Doorman) had major surgery on his back a few years back. He was in alot of pain and the doctors had to remove a disc in his spine. (made him a inch shorter).

Thanks for asking. :D  I feel a little bit better, but that's only because I'm on meds. :eek  I start physical therapy tomorrow, so hopefully that will bring more permanent relief. :)  One of the tests I have scheduled doesn't even happen until July 28th, so it looks like I might have this problem for a little while.

Doug,

I really do hope you begin to feel better soon. I know it sounds like a real chore to have all these tests done, but it's best to find out whats really going on inside and create a game plan :comp to fix it.

I went though similar tests and because of the doctors being able to accurately see what was happening, I'm alive today to talk about it. :good

You are in my prayers. :)

I assume your doctor recommended icing it for 10-15 minutes at a time.  If not, your PT will and start right away.  Having slipped a disc twice, I can say that the ice works incredibly well.  It takes whatever inflammation there is pinching those nerves down a little. Are you still working or did you get some time off?  Knowing the grocery industry I'm pretty sure you're going to say still working.   :laugh   LOL

Thanks for the tips Angie. :)  Yes, I'm still working. :eek The doctor offered to take me out last week, BUT it was Fourth of July week and the assistant manager was on vacation. :eek  Our bookkeeper was terminated as well, so I've been doing triple duty. :eek  I just make sure that I don't lift anything heavy.  The management is pretty well aware that I may go out any time now. :eek

The thing that I used to have to tell myself is that "If I am not there, the store will not fall down. It will be still be standing and making money while I'm gone."  They don't want to lose you, I'm sure, but they'll get over it.  They'll transfer someone in, promote someone to bookkeeper, or do whatever it takes.  Do what is best for you so that you can avoid surgery.  That is the most important thing.
