I get a bone density scan on my lumbar/hip tomorrow!

If good, back to work Jan 5.
If bad, 6 more months of disability & early retirement.

Id rather go back to work. For 5 more years till full retirement.

OTOH retiring & moving to Mexico wouldn't be all bad...
Just got back from 5 days in Cabo, I'd deal with it... :laughing

Started PT!
Had a couple good massage this week & the back is loosening up.
Doing some PT recommended exercises & gentle yoga at home.

Doc just called with a referral to another MD. I have osteoporosis in my back. Fuckety Fuck!

We all have some measure of degradation. The report from my neck injury talked about osteoporosis and arthritis and I was in my 30s. He said "that's normal", a lot of CYA by the docs so they note everything to the nth detail.

Hope your recovery continues smoothly.

How’s the PT coming along? Maybe sport bikes are in your future!

Thanks. Doc says moderate to severe. More testing this week to determine treatment. Also have another MRI this week.

Bending over a tank didn't work 3 years ago. Don't think its going to work now.. :laughing

PT is good. Still have a localized pain that comes & goes.
