Hi Ginger, as someone who also enjoys being active--hiking, climbing, cycling, pilates, etc. I get frustrated when I can't move as much due to back or foot pain for even a couple of weeks. That sounds terrible, being limited, being uncomfortable, worrying about spinal injuries, and no clear diagnosis. You are so strong for everyone else here AND you do amazing work. You deserve as much support as you can handle. In lieu of that, you deserve amazing self-care. Anyway, for what it's worth, thinking about you and sending good thoughts and prayers your way.
