Ruptured Disc in Back

[Oldman]

Hey is anybbody awake yet it is 6:30 am I just finished bis & back. Anybody know anything about a ruptured disk L-5. Funny no Pain just preassure on my siatic nerve and thats going away. Now I just feel numbness. The doc said I have a weird one when he looked at MRI -- he is sending me to a Neurosurgeon. Just wondered if anbody has any experience with it.

No I have been pretty lucky considering the beatings I've taken over the years. I wish you well friend and a speedy recovery!!

Thanks for the concern Celtics!! I do not know what to expect. I think it has been like this for a while. I cannot believe I just did it I would have to be in more pain.

HEY BRO! MY FATHER HAS HAD 9 DISKS RUPTURED IN HIS BACK.I HOPE YOU DONT ENCOUNTER THE SAME PROBLEM HE DID.WHEN HIS FIRST ONE RUPTURED ALL THE CINOVIAL FLUID DRAINED OUT FROM BETWEEN THAT DISK AND THE ONE UNDER IT.THE FLUID ACTS AS A SHOCK ABSORBER AND KEEPS THE DISKS FROM BECOMING BRITTLE.AFTER THAT IT WAS A DOMINOE EFFECT.THE PRESSURE KEPT BUILDING ON THE DISKS UNDERNEATH AND IT EVENTUALLY HAPPENED NINE TIMES.HE WAS UNDER THE CARE OF A VA HOSPITAL AND THEIR DOC'S R A FUCKING JOKE,SO I THINK WITH THE PROPER MEDICAL ATTENTION YOU SHOULD BE FINE.

Oh sh*t Ironman. I hope that doesn't happen I betting I have had this for a long time. Just that I recently aggrevated the thing. Or at least I hope thats the case. I am going to see the doc that cut Mario Lemieux. If he is not the best I do not know who is. I am hoping I do not have to be cut. I just do not know a thing about this Catch you later.
