Herniated Disc: Round 2
One more reason not to be doing any more long road trips: herniated disc. You may remember about 3 years ago I suffered from a herniated disc in my lower back which put pressure on a nerve to my left leg causing pain when walking or sitting. It ended up putting me in bed for about a month while the disc material was absorbed. Well, after my road trip to Ohio the disc herniated again. Not as bad this time, thankfully, but it still knocked me out of work for 2 and a half weeks, just returning to work today. No longer really painful, but at this point the left side of my left leg feels numb, as if it’s gone to sleep.
I’m just glad that it got better in time for the holidays. And it serves as a reminder that I really need to lose weight, or this’ll just keep happening.
I’m sorry to hear that bud. I know it sucked the first time, that’s good that it isn’t as bad this time.
Glad to hear you’re up and about again.
