@MarkNV how thick was that needle? i'm assuming they injected cortisone in there? if so lay off for a while so you don't cause more damage

@LevButlerov @Pigsy

To be clear, I was talking about sending @Noah Wixx a Platinum branded jersey, not Platinum gear brothers. He was commenting on the pic @Pigsy posted wearing our community merch and Noah mentioned that he wished DS had some merch for him to rep, so I was offering one of ours as gift.

There's nothing unsafe about sending him merch :P

we don't listen to our parents, we don't listen to our doctors, we don't listen to the anyone. we are going to do what we want. thats our mentality

but hopefully people realize its not worth it lol. cause you are only setting yourself back more if you realize our bodies are not robots and the older we get the more our bodies fall apart

The VA has come a very long way.
Let your wife know, others here thank her for her service and appreciate her for that.

once you realize that our discs are not replaceable people figure it out fast. unfortunately we cannot replace discs and it won't happen in our lifetime. once you start ruining them then its bad news. i would give up every ounce of muscle to get back a 100% healthy spine. and gravity doesn't help either lol. i'm just glad i discovered hot yoga, it completely changed my life and allowed me to live a normal life. without it then i would be on pain pills for life

Brother man, I totally get it.
I had a major discectomy in L4, L5.
Years of small injuries and small leakages that calcified and then….when they both went, the fresh disc material shoved all of the calcified material straight into that sciatic nerve. You are very smart person and you know exactly what that did to me. It was the most painful experience of my entire life. 55 years at that time, multiple broken bones in my life, multiple surgeries, wounds, but those blown discs were the worst thing I have ever experienced. And I would trade so much to have it back.
