@moorey How’s your back problem tracking?
Really well thanks. Cortisone for a week reduced the disc inflammation and fluid, and gave me my right leg back. I’ve actually had very little discomfort for the last week, which makes me forget to take it easy. Doc is overly cautious, telling me the usual stuff I should never do again (twisting, bending, leaning), but being sensible, there’s nothing I can’t currently do, or anything I’m likely to have to give up.
Carefully chopped a little bit of wood this morning (Felix lifts and loads), and had a roll around the driveway on the bike testing Felix’s gears. Planning some gentle km’s next week.
Long story short, hope to have dodged a bullet, and feeling like a bit of a fraud. Was meant to be off work this week, but haven’t even used the sick leave. Was probably a good eye opener that will have stopped me doing the stuff that has got me here in the past.
