Far out, I'm six weeks off 50 and my body feels like it is already wearing out. Stuffed my back on the weekend, and now need to go to the GP, who will send me for xrays, only to tell me there is nothing they can do.
Makes it hard to sleep, when you move it canes. Need to be at work because I'm the boss, and we are short staffed.
Man I still have to work another 20 years before I can retire. Gonna be pretty ordinary if I have done some major damage.
Wait until you just bend over to do something and end up having to crawl to the toilet on your hands and knees ....
Yes it has happened to me....I bent over to put a tyre on a landcrusier split rim and ended up straining a muscle in my lower back.....I spent 2 or 3 days having to crawl to the toilet because it was too bloody painful to stand up....Sleep...Practically non existant...Just a slight move in bed or just randomly during the night, muscle spasms....
The doc put me on some anti-inflammortaries and pain killers for that...
I have constant back problems, all to do with my trade choice.....I have learnt to live with it and I'm well over 50.....Not much fun but not much else I can do about it
