Had the worst couple o' days I can remember. Went to big brother's house to celebrate Mother's Day with my family and his. After three hours sitting on the couch, I felt my face going white. When we left, I almost had the wife drive home. Spent all of Monday laying in bed with my back screaming. Actually passed out three times with the pain. Fought back the urge to use pharmaceuticals which was pretty stupid on my part. Feeling better today, but I ain't gonna push it. I know better. If I forget, the back will remind me.

An Arizona Highway Patrol officer stops a Harley rider for traveling faster than the posted speed limit:
He asks the old biker his name.
“Fred.” He replies.
“Fred what?” The officer asks.
“Just Fred.” The old man responds.
The officer is in a good mood, thinks he might just give the old biker a break and write him out a warning instead of a ticket.
The officer then presses him for the last name.
The old man tells him that he used to have a last name, but lost it.
The officer thinks that he has a nut case on his hands but plays along with it.
“Tell me, Fred, how did you lose your last name?’
The old biker replies.
“It’s a long story, so stay with me. I was born Fred Johnson. I studied hard and got good grades. When I got older, I realized that I wanted to be a doctor. I went through college, medical school, internship, and residency, and finally got my degree, so I was Fred Johnson, MD.
After a while, I got bored being a doctor, so I decided to go back to school. Dentistry was my dream! I got all the way through school, got my degree, so then I was Fred Johnson, MD, DDS. I got bored doing dentistry, so I started fooling around with my assistant and she gave me VD, so now I was Fred Johnson, MD, DDS, with VD.
Well, the ADA found out about the VD, so they took away my DDS. Then I was Fred Johnson, MD, with VD. Then the AMA found out about the ADA taking away my DDS because of the VD, so they took away my MD leaving me as Fred Johnson with VD.
Then the VD took away my Johnson, so now I am Just Fred.”
The officer walked away in tears, laughing

Brother Be careful , Back Pain is a big sign of an on coming heart attack, even after a few days
Do you check your blood pressure reg? And monitor your pulse rate to see if anything my be happening at the same time you go white. Going white is not a Good Sign......................................
My Brother in law had a massive widow maker at 60 and his chief complaint was sharp back pain.
Be careful and maybe get check out if it is still bad.
A Friend always Stig.
 
First thing the Old Hen did was to get out the blood pressure cuff and the O2 finger thingie. Both good.
Much better today. Only time I thought I was going out was when I first hopped in the shower. Bad place to crash and burn, so I shook my head like a dog with water in his ears. It worked.

Almost sounds like you were passing a kidney stone.

Yet another gaugus day starting at 53F and predicted to reach 79F.

Got my silver locks trimmed yesterday, so I can see again.

Off to the gym this morning, then a coin flip between knitting, or creative debauchery. Maybe two tosses, calling head first, then tail!
 
Good morning Misfits! Got some great sleep last night and woke up to a pain level of 2! That hasn't happened since my early working days. I live with a normal 4, which I don't complain about. When it spikes to 8, it makes me happy that I'm a married man with a beautiful daughter or I'd texture the ceiling with my grey matter.
Got a shaggy lawn to deal with, so I'm praying for rain.:)

Sending my dancers to help with the needed rain

I used to occasionally do rain dances on the job on Fridays back in my working days. Almost never failed. Had one general foreman thinking I was a mystic of some sorts. When you've got arthritis, you kinda get a heads up when rain is on the way. :)

Nope. Never been bothered by them, thank Buddha. I've seen friends go through it. Not pleasant. I drink way too much phosphoric acid (Coke) to ever allow them to form.
