Proper Drag Radial Operating Temperature

Good luck in finding a treatment that works for you. I spent a long time with back pain until one day the disk herniated. I couldn't lift my right foot and ended up dragging that leg. Surgery in three days as I was about to start a new job. Had one week for recovery and I started mt new job.

Oops, I mixed my tenses. That was ten years ago. I woke up on a Thursday barely able to walk. Got into my PCP at lunch. Had MRI and saw surgeon on Friday then had surgery on Monday. The following Monday I flew to the D.C area to attend orientation for my new job at IBM. I wasn't aware that the medical community could work that fast. Still have lower back pain, but I'm able to put drag radials on my V so it's all good. Have had a couple of outpatient procedures since, all in lower back.

Glad to hear the good news, albeit 10-Years late..

And like me, you're no young 'Chicken' anymore.

And when your our age, old, grey, wrinkled, etc., it's easy to get the younger crowd to help you out with the such things as the groceries at the store, put the shopping cart away for you after they help unload it. All you have to do is limp a little, groan a little..

I’ve lived with 3 bulging or ruptured disks for over 32 years now.
what I’ve found to be the most help, almost instantly might I add, is an inversion table.
amazing what 2-3 minutes does, then step it up to 4-5.
I’ve passed this information on to others I see slumped over crooked with telling them I’ll guarantee it and I’ll buy the table if they don’t like it.
Just be be careful if you’re on blood pressure medication. I have high blood pressure but don’t take any medications at all.

you don’t have to go fully inverted either, put a song on to time yourself because what feels like 4 minutes to me is like minute and a half but if I listen to music the time flies by.
when I’m really crooked I can feel the spine click back and I get off the machine standing straight. Just wish I had the discipline to use it everyday to maintain healthier spine.
