At one point in my examination, the emergency room doctor told me it appeared that I had a cute sciatica.?ÿ I wasn't sure if I should thank him or punch him in the nose for checking out my sciatica.

?ÿ

The false story above where I claimed Paden called my wife Widow Cow comes from a story I heard many years ago.?ÿ There were two very experienced cops and a rookie that got caught up in a gun battle.?ÿ One of the senior cops was killed.?ÿ After the fight was over, the remaining career cop told the younger one that they needed to go to the home of the deceased officer to tell his wife of his demise.?ÿ The rookie wanted to be the one to tell her.?ÿ So, he was given some quick training on tact, sympathy and support.?ÿ When the wife opens the door to them, the rookie promptly asks her if she is Widow Jones.?ÿ She replied that she was Mrs. Jones but she was not a widow.?ÿ "The Hell you ain't.", said the rookie.

If you're wearing a belt, try suspenders until you're better!

I had a similar ailment back in the spring. Excruciating pain from hip to knee in my left leg. I had to sit down to pee.

Doc twisted knee every which way; some ways hurt, others didn't. He poked inside and out along my thigh; some pokes hurt, others didn't.

Then he told me about this bundle of nerves that goes down your thigh and said that was the problem. Prescribed Diclofenac Sodium 75 mg.

Within a day the pain was livable. Half way through the refill, it was gone. I keep the med on hand, felt signs of a relapse during the summer and ended it with three doses.

Best of luck with yours and get well soon!

Back problem is probably the major contributing factor to my being a Land Surveyor and Engineer today.?ÿ In 1978 I was running a crew doing construction staking on a paper mill when I hurt my back.?ÿ I have no idea how it happened, the pain started light and then got progressively worse.?ÿ It got to the point where I couldn't walk more than a hundred feet without stopping.?ÿ Needless to say I couldn't work.?ÿ My wife, in her wisdom, said, "If you can't work you're going back to school".?ÿ I did, the rest is history.?ÿ I can't say what "cured" my problem.?ÿ Doctors just wanted to cut but I kept putting it off.?ÿ I saw a chiropractor for about a year and the pain subsided.?ÿ I still get a twinge now and then but nothing like it was.

Get better soon.

Andy

" I had to sit down to pee."

Well, that's a requirement for me.?ÿ The doctor told me not to lift anything heavier than ten pounds.
