Re Corri Like a sprained ankle, once injured, it will always be more susceptible to future injury.
That is me!

this room smells like my bedroom when I was a kid... next day... I couldn't MOVE. sorry about the revisit to a bad childhood. I tend to tense up when in a situation that isn't going like I want it to. Selfish of me, isn't it?

As for the back... it has become my eipi-center for stress, now. It is centered in my psoas muscle.... and my right hip flexor.
Corri, you been talkin to my physical therapist, haven't you?

bed-rest, and then an incrementally increased workout program to strengthen my CORE muscle area.
I have been through that same drill 5 times in 25 years.

Oh and about those core muscles, I hear that every time at PT. Just call me the PC muscle kid.

Lack of oxygen was contributing to my muscle spasms. I also underwent message therapy and some physical therapy.
collaborating with my P therapist again I see! Or did you two go to PT school together? Just teasing a little because that is about what my PT'ist tells me.

This... ALL... from Post Traumatic Stress. Divorce and car accident.
Yes, you have been through the mill. (((corri)))

If I ever get a cast on some limb, will you sign it? Just kidding. I hope you are all done with accidents and such.

kml a doc? gees what ever gave you that idea corri. Yes, she is a MD and so is her H. She had relatives living in my area but I never met anyone.

You should read some of her posts. They are educational medically and relationship wise. KML is A two-fer poster for sure. she can cure your ills and lend an ear, write an Rx for pills and an Rx for broken relationships.

Re kml has she ever considered "anti-aging" bio-identical hormone replacement?
BB asked her oncologist about some ??sweet potato?? product. He said no.

I lurk on the breastcancer.org web site and pick up a few things that might help but the information does not go from me, to BB, then to the doc very well, then back to me.

I will learn about "anti-aging" bio-identical hormone replacement and present some of the information to BB.

Maybe if you approached it from a "vitality" standpoint
BB has a vitality hook.

Thanks for the Maybe if you approached it from a "vitality" standpoint and the "anti-aging" bio-identical thoughts.

BTW, BB has hypo-thyroid and sees a GP for it. She won't go to an endocrinologist. Her dog even has hypo-thyroid, go figure.
