It is amazing what you can achieve if you pace yourself with just a little bit everyday. I have started to landscape the back garden, seriously, I have started to landscape the garden, I do two or three, twenty minute sessions a day, often just crawling around on the ground (lately I have been more on my feet) It is difficult to tell the difference from day to day if I have achieved anything at all - my wife thinks I am insane, but 4 months in, I have built a fence and a path, I sometimes look at it and think 'surely I couldn't have done that'
Nothing is ever impossible as someone once told me.

That is what my wife drives, or at least hers is the C220 diesel - I found it horrendous to sit in for about a year until my ruptured disc last summer, and then totally impossible, however since I have started to recover I now find the car very comfortable - interesting how stuff must move about in the spine and depending on how it is impinging on a nerve either allows or disallows all manner of stuff.

How interesting that this decidedly odd and dubious cosmetic medicine has produced such a worthwhile side-effect. Presumably they must still inject it into the muscle, but for headaches where do they inject it ?

Have you / they decided on what operation you will have, is it still the fusion? and any dates yet?
