In the past couple of weeks I have:
1. Had a visit with the ortho-dude. My degenerative disc disease is back, this time in my lower back, with pain radiating to my upper thighs, rather than neck/shoulders. I'm now on a couple of different meds, a muscle relaxer & a steroid. The pain level varies widely throughout the day.
2. Ortho-dude said I could go do the nature walks that I do for the first of the two back-to-back camping events I typically staff in early June. Those "propbably" wouldn't make things any worse. So I went, and he seems to have been correct in that assessment.
3. Had two physical therapy appointments.
4. Did not have the 'net connection I thought I would have at the campground; hence, didn't manage to keep up with my 100 years ago today in history posts. Will be catching up on those as I can; will be posting four after I finish this note.
