Today was the second time this year I’d thrown out my back. The back muscle spasms are so bad it puts me in entirely different state of mind. It’s due to the amount of brain piercing bursts of pains I experience. Transferring from the floor to the couch almost had me black out. It only takes the slightest move to trigger the spasmed muscle(s). It’s like playing a game of Russian roulette but it’s your body movements. Cool huh?

Do y’all get this too? Why is it so fucking god awful painful? How do you handle your episodes?

    At the risk of giving unsolicited advice, which I apologize I’m about to do, have you tried the mayo clinic in Rochester Minnesota? They take almost everybody’s insurance, they’re not as expensive as most people would think, and they give some really fantastic service.

    The mayo clinic in Rochester Minnesota is where some of the incredibly wealthy people from the Middle East fly to when they need medical care. That should give you an idea of just how good they are.

    Just some food for thought for you. Hopefully you can figure out a way to get this solved permanently.

      No apologies necessary. I appreciate the advice. Thank you. 💜

      I’ve been telling my mom to go to the Mayo Clinic for her chronic cough for years. I’ll check it out.
