I am just sharing. My last disk in my lower back is blown towards my spinal cord. If I end up like you. I have been down for up to three months. Mediation doesn't work for me personally. What I personally use is magnesium and niacin. Then. Hot and cold packs. Once I personally get my lower back to relax. I lay flat on the bed and try to get my hips to pop back into place. Inturn my lower back. I am allergic to almost all medications. Sadly. I use tools as dollies to help me not to over due it. I am just sharing. Take care.

Sad for your health and feel for you! Got something like this few years back and only thing who save me was Acupuncture. Wish you all the very best!! 🙏🙏

When using steps follow this tip. Use good foot/leg first going up (to Heaven). Use bad foot/leg next going down ( to Hell). When you approach steps you can repeat this in your mind. I know your pain.

Praying you are starting to feel better Matthew. Shion praying for you also as you care for him. May God grant you strength as you try to navigate the things concerning the RV also that you normally don't have to handle. 🙏🏽

Degenerative disks you need anti inflammatory pills like aleve and rest and infrared heating pad a good painkiller to have is tramadol. Don't get the other strong painkillers they don't work. Unfortunately you need rest it can take months for the desks to heal but they will never be the same again you will have to adjust to disability with this

I don't know if it could work for you, but Progressive is hiring.

You probably had herniated disc. The older you get the more you’re back compresses,and inversion table stretches it out, so it gets oxygen in the joints and stops that from happening😎

You need to get an inversion table to hang upside down to keep your back from throwing out that way, I’ve had one for 30 years. My back has no problems until I get one. I was supposed to have surgery. I declined and bought the inversion table instead,life has been great.🫣

I have been to Alamosa and also the sand dunes, I loved it there ! A good friend of ours had a cabin at the base of the mountains, I would LOVE to go back there one day,its beautiful and sooo quiet there!

I know that feeling...anxiety when something happens to a partner. Start listing weights and doing what he does 😊❤

We went through both loosing our jobs in 2020 (very good paying long term jobs). It hasn't been easy, but God has provided the entire time. But... like you said you have to trust Him and turn it over to Him. He won't let you down! He is changing plans for many of His children due to His plans and needing all hands on deck in the body. Prayers!!!

What is the name of the rat thing? Please tell me.

Praying for you both. God be with you.

New Mexico. I saw it finally. Thx

What state? Where are you two?

I have spondeoleothesis. It is pretty bad. I can’t walk far. I can’t stand still very long. A surgeon said that he could fix it. I am. Ok. Mostly as long as I am still. I miss being active. But I am doing best I can. God bless you both!!

No x Ray??

He moved what??

I wouldn’t go to the falls. I wouldn’t like the walk there.

I like trees but it is pretty

Prayers for y’all

sounds like everything you said makes sense but I think and x-ray may be needed as well, it may show slipped disc and or other stuff pool therapy may help. Rest is very important I have many of the above.

Are you guys back I hope you are I haven't seen y'all in forever I've missed y'all 😢 I can throw you a boomerang that'll come back on you so hard you won't realize it until you've been hit. Going through some stuff myself and it's hard to stay positive. Sorry to hear you got injured Matthew prayers that you're better soon 🙏🏻

I have had several steroid epidurals over past 10 years I feel your pain.

Oh man, I sympathize with Matthew. Here’s to hoping the ER doc was on the right track and things settle down. Good conversation on adjustments though. Thanks for another good one guys! Hope the next one has more laughing and Matthew is on the mend.

Great advice at the end. I sure hope this injury is temporary and heals quickly. Once you feel better, you might want to consider following a stretching video as part of your daily routine. There's a physical therapist who does stretching videos for scoliosis. (Can't remember the channel right now). These stretches helped my back pain quite a bit when I was doing them regularly. Also, consider finding a good chiropractor. I've been dealing with back pain since I fractured my spine as a teenager a few decades ago, and then being rear ended about ten years ago just about did me in. Stretching and the chiropractor have kept me mobile.

You may be okay one day then down for a few days. Just be aware that this will likely give you bad days or weeks or even longer but you can learn to live with it and still live your dream but with more chalenges. Most important thing to remember is Don't dwell on it and stay positive. God bless you both.
