Guys: I'm going in for another back surgery in the morning. Hope to be home Friday, doubt I'll feel like getting online. This is my third go with this ordeal. Have quite a kink in my spine that's been pinching a nerve and giving me hell several months. Kill some hogs while I'm gone and stay healthy too.

Wishing you a fast recovery and complete relief, George. I've had three, too, and hope to get injections soon. There is hope, even when your brain tells you there isn’t. – John Green, author | |||

George---hope nothing but the best of outcomes for you. I have a bad back myself, but so far I am not facing surgery. Will kill a few for you --- An old pilot, not a bold pilot, aka "the pig murdering fool" | |||

I know about back problems! Got screws and rods in mine! They have come a long way since then! Fast recovery and relief! Not seeing much on the cameras lately. Way too hot to sit in the plywood boxes at the wife's place! | |||

I think every one of us should go out for sits and then fill this forum with stories and LDP pics so George will have some "entertainment" during his recovery. I will start Sunday night---story and hopefully red arrows, blood trails, and LDP pics to follow!!! An old pilot, not a bold pilot, aka "the pig murdering fool" | |||

Hey Dusty, I'm looking forward to them! Live Oak: Had 8 screws, believe he replaced the two 5" rods with a longer pair to attach the next vertibrae. IF so, that will make ten. For you guys that don't know what they are. 3" lag screws with one way threads, use and awl to pound a pilot hole in the bone, then do the same with the screws. Type with rods have a 1/2" cup swivel head the 1/4" rods lay in, then a flat washer like screw down to lock the rods in place. Last go round the dr gave me a set of 4. I asked this doc to save me all the hardware he took out. Expect only the two 5" rods. I still have one up between the shoulder blades that keeps popping out creating lots of spasms. This was not in the plans this trip. Thanks guys. Do take care of your back! Once it's wrecked, it'll always be. And sure no fun after that.

All the best mate. Hope they fix you up. ------------------------------ A mate of mine has just told me he's shagging his girlfriend and her twin. I said "How can you tell them apart?" He said "Her brother's got a moustache!" | |||
