Shoveled a little snow today with no back pain. That's a first, but my left foot is toast. Also, my inner thigh on my left leg is giving me some flare-up--strange because the nerve should run on the outside of the leg. Big accomplishment today of only taking prednisone--no muscle relaxers or Vicodin. Did a lot more Internet searching today on Doctors. I have some good leads on people that have worked on other athelete spines (thanks everyone that made recommendations). I'm seeing Terry Sawchuck (great last name) on Wednesday for injection/rehab. If it comes to surgery, I'll probably look at Dr. Armen Khachatryan or Dr. Kade Huntsman. I'll probably also give Dr. Toronto a call. Once again, thanks Dr. Jason Blackham (Ogden runner) on some good advice. |
