Not the best combination....
wondering who out there has had struggled with back issues. Just got my MRI results back and have 5 herniated discs (mild to moderate) but one has dropped (extrusion) which is the one that I can't shake. I have had back surgery in 2008 (microdiscectomies and laminectomy) and recovered well but these past 6 mths i have had 4 major episodes and never quite fully recovering. Irony is.. i have flair ups not during races or after but when i pick up something funny or slip and brace myself....
Worse things in the world and the discs are stable which is good but more surgery in the near future. Anyone else out there with similar experiences??
Hope I won't be singing my triathlon/running swan song yet...
