Back Update

Today started with physical therapy, then, a bit later, a visit with the neurosurgeon. Since I can live with the pain...that's what Ill be doing. If it gets worse, we'll talk surgery. It's possible there's a lesion causing problems with the nerve. I'll continue physical therapy then return to work on night shift starting September 2. As for restrictions..."if it hurts, don't do it". And I can only work up to 12 hours. He asked if I was sure as that seemed a lot for him...but I'll try. So, I'll enjoy the time I have left...as Lord knows when I'll ever have time off from work again!
