Dont eat my leg! Member 325, 189 posts SQ 145, BP 117.5, DL 190452.5 kgs @ 87.5kgs UnEq | possibly got a job working with kids for the summer holidays. I've worked in a nursery before so it should be fine. Easy enough so long as you don't try and keep up with them! I tried it once and I fell asleep on the sofa by 6pm. | ||

Seriously though, hope it's nothing too serious, and that you can get back to heavy deadlifting soon! | ||

Unfortunately, you're a tart who benches more than me!If you're not doing the September comp does that mean you're spectating in a dress? Not that it's much punishment for you... | ||

You know how to cut to the core of me dear Finch. Todays back update: I sat down in a chair, then got up. It crippled me. I now cannot sit, stand, walk, piss, sneeze, s**t or wank (I have tried all of these) without getting shooting pains that stop me dead to the left of my L5. I can only hope that come september, the events of PL have changed to the stair crawl, supine lie down, and old man shuffle. Then I will truly be a king among men! | ||

Dont eat my leg! Member 325, 189 posts SQ 145, BP 117.5, DL 190452.5 kgs @ 87.5kgs UnEq | Back update: I took a completely useless trip to the doctors today. The condensed version was pretty much like this: Me: Something is very wrong with my back. Yesterday from sitting only, I was completely crippled and ended up having to crawl up the stairs to bed. It is also affecting my ability to work. Dr: Yes, but look at you walking now! Next... Apparently they won't send you for a scan until they are completely convinced you need surgery. Surely the point of a diagnostic tool like scanning is to determine the need for surgery, not be justified by it. What a waste of time that was. | ||
