Nick took a bad fall down the stairs the other day as well. He's waiting to hear from his doctor about the MRI results. He said it's either a slipped or ruptured disk, the latter of which they would have to fuse two of his disks together, something he has avoided because of his recent therapy. He may be out of commision for a while as well. He couldn't even drive for a few days because of it.
We'll have to play this one by ear, but I definitely want to go.
Ohh I could drive alright, it was the morphine/vicodin coctail I'm back on that prevented it .. lol MRI results are somewhat clean, slipped the damn L4/L5 disk and the crap that is sticking out is bulging pretty good but no ruptures *woooo hooo* 6 months including therapy, 50 lbs worth of weightloss, strengthening, etc, and I'm back to square one ... but count me in for the HCT trip boys! As long as my right leg don't go numb again I'm all good to bounch around in the mud for a while.
To clearify what Mike said, the fall wasn't really THAT bad, I just break easily in that particular area. Was walking down with a hamper full of laundry and slipped in the damn stairs and went bouncing down 10 or so steps. Heard and felt the lumbar region pop and that's all she wrote .. like Mike said, since I have degenerative disk disease as well they are not inclined to mess with my disks or try to allow them to heal since they are so destroyed to begin with. My l4/l5/s1 disks are all in bad shape and I know I'll need to get at least l4/l5 fused and cleaned out within the next 10 years, s1 is also a real posibility as that's where the majority of the spinal canal narrowing is located.
Anyways, I'm fine, in pain, and drugged up (again). Now lets get a wheeling trip going guys .. I don't care if it's HCT or Dayton TN, lets just all hook up and go have some fun!
