Hey guys, thanks for the advice. Yeah, I was only kidding about the codeine.
If it doesn't look like the back is recovering fast enough, then I suppose I may drop out of the Lei Tai, though I've put in enough time, effort and money that doing so would be almost as painful to me as the physical injury
.
I don't think it's a slipped disc. The pain has already gone down some during the night, though it still feels pretty fragile. My girlfriend is making an appointment with Piedmont Springs for us to go and soak in a hot tub later today, so hopefully that'll help.
I do also have a good friend who is a great chiropractor. She's the one who treated me after my motorcycle accident. If I think I need to see her, then of course I'll do so. I think I'll give it a couple of days and see how it feels, how quickly it seems to be recovering, before I make any big decisions.
Thanks again.
Troy
