  • I'm Back my Back Won't be Back with MRIs

    These are the significant slices of the September 13th 2024 MRI which show the Schmorle's Nodes. This is when the discs between the vertebrae herniate internally into the lower vertebrae. I attribute this to 30+ years of "Farmers Carries" with 40 pounds in each hand & walking the 80 extra pounds of Water Softener Salt, Chicken Feed, Firewood or set up my scaffolding & moving the planks single handedly.
