That reminds me of trying Red Arrow athlete feet medicine on my jock itch and discovering it was brutal, but the next day the dead skin peeled off in a sheet and there was no jock itch left.

I subsequently relayed that cure to a college roommate, along with the caveat it burned a lot. He was desparate for a cure that worked so dropped his drawers and tried it anyway and I can still see his shoe prints on the wall over his bed and his screaming, "You son of a *****, you son of a *****, you son..............et al".
I used Blue Star Ointment. Burned like a mother fker but killed the jock itch. I still keep it in my medicine cabinet. I've used that stuff for over 40yrs.

GW, got any reports on that pain abatement procedure? My spine is watching......
They do the first tests tomorrow afternoon. They will first deaden the nerves they believe involved and see if it solves the problem. If it does, they will deaden them one more time next week to satisfy the insurance company, and then do the RFA if the deadening reduces pain by at least 80%.

Good Luck brother GW.
Does this work for lumbar pain as well as the sciatica nerve down the leg that you know of?

I don't know all of the RFA applications, but I suspect that it may not help sciatica. As I understand it, that is caused by the channels that the leg nerves pass through being too small with the shifted position of the vertebra. The fix as far as I know is to open up those channels.
 
Gooode morning original borborygmus brethren! Let the parping and curmurring begin.

Rain here today, starting at 39F and predicted to reach 46F.

Sent out the official registered notification letter to Area Heating and Cooling that I was filing a CLB complaint against them and signed up for a service contract with Anderson Heating and Cooling for both duplexes and our house.

Breakfast out this morning with Grayfox and Nutrition Magician.

This afternoon they will perform the first tests to see if RFA will remediate my lower back pain, by first simply deadening the suspected nerves to see if the pain goes away.
 
Just pulled an old fart trick. I'm laying back, drinking my first ice water of the day, and I get a little down the wrong pipe. A mild amount of coughing and hacking cleared it out with no problems. I then realized that my nicotine pouch was no longer in my mouth. It didn't go down my lung, but I think it's stuck on my right side, right where my tonsils used to be.....

Might have to chew up some steel wool to dislodge it.

Well, did you check around the area where you were choking
 
Evening folks. Cold snap down here in the South. Fireplace is loaded with hickory and the bed will be warm with mama bear in there with me.
Deer season is over, whew. 7 deer in the freezer ready to process into steaks and sausages.
Hoping to fence in another 8 acres this spring and expand the sheep herd some more. Also going to start raising a cow every year. Building our own slaughterhouse. Tired of spending too much money on questionable meat. I’d rather spend too much on meat raised off my own land and butchered by my own hand.
Now my rc runway will have sheep **** on it. Will be authentic for bushplane flying 😂
