Went to the doc yesterday

Ernie Swanson

SASSY PINK LUUNCHBOX KNIFE MAKER
Well, I limped into the Doc yesterday. After a short exam she told me there is 1 of three possible things wrong with me.
1. Just inflamed muscle in my lower back and left leg(from a previous back injury)
2. Sciatica, the pinching or inflamed sciatic nerve.
3. I am Hemorrhaging a disc in my lower back.

back dont hurt any but my leg has been killing me for the last week. It hurts to walk and hurts worse to sit or lay.
Leg goes numb and It feels like charlie horses. also feels like its sleeping.:eek:


I now have to start physical therapy, and take steroids for a week then go back and see her around the 21st.cool 1 Good thing I have a cute doctor;)

If it still hurts after that Then I get to go see a specialist.

I hope physical therapy fixes it..........I am leaving for ND to go prairie dog Hunting on Wednesday.

Good thing it don't hurt too bad:eek:


Sorry just had to vent a little to someone2thumbs:cool:

hope you feel better. where are you going in ND, the grasslands near dickinson?
 
Thanks,
We are going near a place called Shields, its south of Bismark.

We have been going there for a few years now.
lots of dogs but no other people.
The only bad part is this year I will be limping around:mad:
 
We had a pet store selling Prairie Dogs here before. Cute little critters. I hope they don't laugh and point when they see you limping up using your rifle as a crutch!

In all seriousness, I have bulging discs and degenerative disc disease, so I truly feel your pain, Ernie. I took a chunk out of my shin a few days before Blade and it got infected. I've been to the doctor's and the ER this week and its not a whole lot of fun.

Hope you feel better. Try not to overdo it, my friend.

Thanks Rock,
I wont over do it, The good thing is we camp in the middle of the dog town so I dont have to walk if I dont want to.

Better get that shin fixed!!
