Thoracic spasm or ?

[sahuaro]

I am doing pretty well--most of my issues now are from soft-tissue injuries to my neck and shoulders from the two MVA's. Ziggy, in his old age, has calmed down some on the leash, which is quite fortunate. We are getting the storm you just went through--there will is snow in the mountains!

Thanks for asking.

I'm not too sure how to post a photo of Lola here although maybe you could post a photo of Ziggy? Lola is much more sedate in the warmer weather and practically comatose in the summer heat .. her heart is so enlarged and it's such an effort for her in the warmer weather to exert herself so she's really quite different then. It's go out do her business and come right back inside.

Now however with the cooler weather she is like her regular self and picking up the scent of the rabbits and squirrels and driving me mad pulling though it's those unexpected moves that seem to get my shoulder/neck area.

Knock on wood my low back while problematic at times (lately) doesn't seem to affected by Lola's "leadership" style of walking

It is however affected by me parking my tired bod on the futon sofa too long and the support not being enough (it's a firm futon sofa but not enough with a few years on it).

Weather wise today is sunny and lovely out! I do so love Southern California winters

Happy Holidays to you and your family and hope it's a relatively pain free one!

Hi Maria,
Sorry for the late reply.
I don't remember how to post photos either, but I will try--on the non-spine related forum.
Please take care of yourself and wishing you happy, healthy holidays as well!
