Like what we had in the old forum.
I can hardly sit these days. I am painful.
I am still working, I guess it keeps me sane.
I'd like to register to just a few topics till I feel better.
I shall answer any PM.
Thanks,
Yona
RA - since early 2005
C5-C7 fusion followed successful C6 Corpectomy, done by a NS July 2007.
New pains & findings, summer 2008:
L1-L2 bulging disk
L4-L5 herniated disk pressing the dural sac & nerve root at the interlaminar foramen (this is probably the reason for my sciatic pain)
L5-S1 bulging disk
Preneural foraminal cystic-like structures at both sides of S2.
Also, degenerated D7-D11 vertebraes with osteophytes and changes in the facet joints.
Decided not to accept Ortho surgeon recommendation to do L4-L5 disk Coblation.
Bone density - more than OK for my age, inspite of prednisone taken for the RA.
Have quitted other RA meds but not pain killers.
Pains I suffer from are related ALSO to fibromyalgia & sciatica.
Can't do Yoga or Pilates (pains...) walking is fine but I want to ride bicycles.

Hi Yona,
Could you explain more what you are trying to do? or better what did you use to do on the old forums?

Yona,
Ok, yes, that item has been on the project list for a while now. We are just finishing up some testing in our Development system before moving into production
