Most here know that I broke my neck and am now rehabbing. When I broke my neck, (the second time,) they found Stenosis and a bulging disc elsewhere. They also found a tumor called a hemaganoma,(sp.) in one of my discs.

Disc injury is so common amoung boomers. Do you have a back problem or a bad back or neck? Do you have treatment for it or not?

Do you have back pain?

I am treated with pain medication 24 hours a day, (which I am lowering at an astounding rate, by the way!!) I have Stenosis in other areas of my neck so I have to have check ups in case I need another sugery at one time. (You don't know fear until you put your neck on an operating table and a stranger cuts it)
Tell me, how are your backs>

dancer, I guess this is the price you pay for being a professional dancer? How unfortunate.

While I don't have neck or back pain nor past injuries, I've had my share of orthopedic surgeries. I've found my pain islessened by staying active. My knees are worse whn I don't exercise.

Glad to hear you're able to back off the pain meds a bit. It must mean you're feeling better.
