I've been adjusted. Today Dr. Sandra Simpson B.Sc., M.Sc., D.C. Chiropractor, examined me. She is a firm believer in spinal health and wellness and is an advocate for long-term spinal care. All the things I don't like about chiropractors. But after a 10-minute conversation she agreed to give me "emergency care" and adjusted my lower back. It feels allot better but still not perfect. I am going back tomorrow for another adjustment. the 2 visits will cost me $123.00 She said I have some decay in a disc in my lower back. Too many sweets I guess ;) Hopefully I will be well enough to go to the gym by weeks end. I also see that the snow-shoveling gods are calling my name again.

It's official, I've given up on the rest thing for my back. Its been 10 days now and it still hurts. I thought I was better last Friday but I was wrong and after shoveling the snow on Monday I'm back to where I started, which is in a great deal of pain. This morning I finally gave in and made an appointment with a Chiropractor, for 10am which is in 25 minutes. I hope she is not a quack. I am looking forward to eating my lunch pain free today. The YMCA is after me big time regarding the Y-try and because of my condition I have been less than helpful. Not too good for the Chair of the event. Well its off to Dr. Cracker. Ill let you know how it goes. Its funny how you take your health for granted untill your not healthy.  l8ter
