thanks far answering susanc,
yes a little over 8 months months ago i did have a mri on my back,whent to a surgen
he said i had some disk that was oozing out but didn't need more surgery now, september 16.0f 2002 i had a laminectomy.after that i was doing ok far a while,but then more leg pain,so thats when i went far another mri.
after the mri he decided i needed epidural steriod injection,i have had 2 so far need one more,
was doing ok till i got out to mow grass.
now my back really hurts ,it goes from my back to my butt cheek and down my right leg to my feet, i don't dare lay on my side cause i can't stand it.on aug 27 i go far more blood work then to my dr.the next week

Sorry about that, computer being weird. I try not to push my activity level to hard. I do a little today, a little tomarrow, and sometimes take a break in between for a day or 2. Some people call me lazy but sometimes you need to make your self slow down and not be in rush to get somthing done. I also try hot showers, and losts of rest the day before i do anything heavy, or stressfull. Sometimes if you can find a comfort zone, and keep track of when you start hurting during your tasks you can learn to understand when it is time to stop before it is to late. I am a person that likes to get a task done once i start it, but sometimes you just need to walk away and finish it later.
