Hi All Since I had my back injury in the police its gradually been getting worse, I don't think getting older helps . I recently had to go and have an MRI scan and got the results today which not only picked out problems with 2 discs which are pressing on nerves, but also a shady area which they don't know what it is yet . So the future is a bit unsteady for me at the moment, I have to go and see a Neuro surgeon and some other guy whos title I cant remember. Hopefully I can keep on modelling but it puts doubts about my work certainly in the near future. Doesn't life like to throw curve balls at yer B-. so if I disappear for a while youll know why Paul

Sorry to hear this Paul...wish you the best of luck as you move forward to correcting your back. I was there about 4 years back, I had L4 & L5 all but removed. These thing take time but do come around after a while. Hang in there!

Stay strong Paul , these things are sent to try us . Im quite sure they will sort your back as for the other matter , try not to dwell . I had a scare a few years back right on New Years .... worst New Years of my life , turned out to be something else but my GP put the fear of God into me . As they say ' you dont know until you know ' so try to be up beat if you can , it will be worth it.

Yeah, good luck Paul. Surely this is bad and I feel with you - Im suffering from an injured shoulder for some weeks now, caused by work (iron binding).
Take care of your health, you got only one.
And as long as you have friends and famliy that will help you to get through this, all is fine!
Get well soon!
