David :SetouchiExplorer:Today's session at the physical therapist's was the most relaxing in a long time. I wouldn't have minded if it had lasted an hour or two. Unfortunately, it probably also was the last one as the pain is almost 100% gone (talking with the doctor next). Or maybe it felt better than usual because it was the way the therapist had to say goodbye?<a href="https://setouchi.social/tags/PhysicalTherapy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PhysicalTherapy</a> <a href="https://setouchi.social/tags/sciatica" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sciatica</a>

Diligence Jones2nd day going to the office without my cane. Testing my balance and hip flexibility. There was a lot of stiffness on Tuesday, but I did a lot of squats throughout the day.This morning, Benson was a tank, so I got a good workout. I'm still limping when I walk to the bus, but I'm faster! I'm just gonna be like those older Asian folks standing in lines doing their exercises.Thank jeebus for cortisone shots.💥Pain= 1/10 🚶🏾‍♀️Mobility= 9/10<a href="https://sfba.social/tags/ButtReport" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ButtReport</a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/sciatica" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sciatica</a>

Andy DaitsmanAnybody know a good doctor who does sciatic nerve replacements? Preferably in New England, but I'm willing to travel. <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Sciatica" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Sciatica</a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/ICantTolerateThePainAnymore" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ICantTolerateThePainAnymore</a>

Hail ErisHad been feeling stiff all week but thought it was just sitting around and the long car ride and needed to exercise. So I went to boxing class yesterday and didn't seem to have any trouble.I came home and took a shower and a nap and after that I could barely walk. I had to use a walking stick and it hurt so bad I started weeping. I mean just sobbing. My poor wife didn't get a wink of sleep either. Yet we didn't call an ambulance or go to the ER 1/<a href="https://retro.pizza/tags/healthcare" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#healthcare</a> <a href="https://retro.pizza/tags/usa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#usa</a> <a href="https://retro.pizza/tags/sciatica" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sciatica</a> <a href="https://retro.pizza/tags/LivingInAmerica" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LivingInAmerica</a>

Diligence JonesJust had my first acupuncture session.That was soothing as hell.<a href="https://sfba.social/tags/ButtReport" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ButtReport</a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/sciatica" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sciatica</a>

Diligence JonesToday's <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/sciatica" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sciatica</a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/ButtReport" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ButtReport</a>:🍑💥 = 3/10 Pain is a massive improvement. I can tell the nerve is still being squeezed but I can't feel it!! Yay! And the hip and lower back are feeling good; some twinges as i step down the prednisone today, i expect but should be manageable.👩🏾‍🦯‍➡️= 8/10 SO much better. Mobility is mobilizing again! Walking Benson feels almost back to normal but we're much slower and no rest breaks. I'm not bent over! I can stand, sit, bend (at the knees) and go up/down stairs smoothly again!

Diligence JonesPrednisone insomnia. Just effing GREAT.The whole point was to manage the pain so I could sleep.<a href="https://sfba.social/tags/steroids" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#steroids</a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/ButtReport" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ButtReport</a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/sciatica" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sciatica</a>

Diligence JonesBedtime googling: "Degenerative spondylosis changes of the midlower lumbar spine with diffuse facet arthropathy greater at the lower levels." Sigh. Those results came back fast.<a href="https://sfba.social/tags/ButtReport" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ButtReport</a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/sciatica" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sciatica</a>

Diligence JonesHm...muscle weakness because of acute pain?Or because I actually haven't been eating the past week, and I've been too distracted by pain and worry to notice? And the 🚫💩🚫 sitch.Thank God I just took a shower. Things were approaching pandemic ferality over here. <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/Adulting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Adulting</a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/ButtReport" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ButtReport</a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/sciatica" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sciatica</a>

Mark StosbergOver time Imade full recovery from <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/sciatica" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sciatica</a> By age 38, I started running.By age 48, I've done a solo 50 mile run in the middle of winter, and placed as the 5th male in a tough trail marathon last month.Today, an interview when live about that journery on the Glen Merzer podcast, also on YouTube: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J_bS5lzm-2k" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J_bS5lzm-2k</a>See also: <a href="https://mark.stosberg.com/building-and-maintaining-back-health/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://mark.stosberg.com/building-and-maintaining-back-health/</a><a href="https://limestonepostmagazine.com/why-i-found-myself-running-50-miles/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://limestonepostmagazine.com/why-i-found-myself-running-50-miles/</a><a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/vegan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#vegan</a> <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/wfpb" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#wfpb</a> <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/running" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#running</a>

Mark StosbergAt age 28 I had a serious episode with <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/sciatica" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sciatica</a> -- back pain -- and ended up on float my back for two weeks.The chiropractor diagnosed with a herniated disk and thought I might need to manage the pain for the rest of my life. I had a "bad back". I thought I was too young to be old, fired the chiropractor and set about making a series of changes to build a strong, flexible, lighter back. Later, I learned about reducing inflammation in my diet. 🧵
