Also, lots and lots of lead exposure.

Better stock up on your chocolate reserves though, just in case.

Way ahead of you brother 🦚🖖

It’s reasons like this post I make homemade gummies. It helps immensely.

Holy shit, the term, the straw that broke the camel’s back is too real in your situation. I’m glad the neurosurgeon and surgery worked out for you! What was your actual diagnosis if you don’t mind me asking?

Thank you!!! Just ordered it :)

No apologies necessary. I appreciate the advice. Thank you. 💜

I’ve been telling my mom to go to the Mayo Clinic for her chronic cough for years. I’ll check it out.

Oh my dear, I wish Cyclobenzaprine or any muscles relaxers worked for these episodes. They don’t. They are definitely helpful after the initial episode.

I suppose I felt compelled to make this post because I was feeling (and still am) completely dejected. I put so much work into my previous recovery and continued prevention. When it all comes crashing back down on you, its hard to know how to feel about it.

University of Washington. This is good to know! I’ll poke around and see if I can find any recent work on this. Thank you!

First, thank you for comment. I couldn’t have explained this experience better myself. I’m so sorry you experience this. I don’t wish this upon anyone. (Except my mortal enemies but that’s a story for another day 😉)

And you’re right, It’s not only the pain but the intense state of stock as well as the hazy memory and speech.

Sounds like you have a solid recovery routine which is the same as me. I do find a few rounds of acupuncture also helps with inflammation and range of motion. I think im going to start taking Yoga classes along with my strength training. Here’s hoping this reduces the episodes.

And here’s hoping your last episode is truly your last one. 💜

 

Today was the second time this year I’d thrown out my back. The back muscle spasms are so bad it puts me in entirely different state of mind. It’s due to the amount of brain piercing bursts of pains I experience. Transferring from the floor to the couch almost had me black out. It only takes the slightest move to trigger the spasmed muscle(s). It’s like playing a game of Russian roulette but it’s your body movements. Cool huh?

Do y’all get this too? Why is it so fucking god awful painful? How do you handle your episodes?
