Frustrated

I hurt my back again...... It always happens when the weather is gorgeous and when I have a lot to do.... Anyway my hubby is on vacation next week and we will be installing the kitchen so I'm going to be scarce for a while. I hope everyone gets lots of great weather and fun rides!

  1. Where is your back injury?

    I have a ruptured disc at the L5 and issues with my SI joints. I have been wearing a BOT back brace pretty much all the time and not only has it made it possible to ride, it helps with fatigue. It's just enough support that it also allows my back muscles to become stronger.

    I have the simple wrap around one without the extra support and I wear it under my clothes most of the time.

  2. It's down low... On the right side this time but sometimes on my left too. Sometimes in my hip. Hubby says it's my sciatica but I've never had it checked because it didn't happen often... It's been worse this year because I haven't been exercising like I used to. Do you have a link to the back brace?

  3. Back problems are the worst! I hope you feel better soon. You might want to try the Back on Track back brace.

  4. Hate to read that. :-( I know the frustration of wanting to do something, accomplish something and pain/injury putting it on the backburner. Hopefully you'll feel better soon AND the weather will be gorgeous enough for a relaxing ride. :-)

  7. Good luck in getting better, did you every try calling a chiropractor to see what their cash price was? They make a big difference in me, hopefully they can for you too.

  8. Thanks guys. It's feeling much better, but I still can't bend over far or pick anything heavy up. I'm taking ibuprofen and muscle relaxers.

    Appy, my regular doctor is a trained chiro... what is sad is I totally forgot that until you said something!!! I'll call him tomorrow. :) I'm kind of scared to get worked on though because I can't handle pain at all and I'm afraid it will hurt or I'll make him stop and it will be a waste of money. I'll talk to him about it though.

  10. Thank you Karen! Would I have to wear it all the time or just when it hurts?
