sciatica

[Welshwoodsman]

Totally agree with that. I have got L5/S1 herniated disk, along with six above that, and another 4 in my cervical spine. Had lots of manipulation For sciatica, from docs and physio- problem was the disc they all missed.

Had nerve block injections, into l5s1, and ended up with permanent nerve damage in my left leg, lost my manual driving license, my hgv license and now walk with a crutch.

So anything other than mild sciatica, insist on an xray, mri or high resolution ct scan- before some tool decides what is best for you!!

Just saying.

 

 

Forgot to say i am

Only 38 😳

Plus now taking massive amounts of

Codeine

Paracetamol

Neurofen

Amitriptylene and pregabalyn

Every day for 5 years now since the nerve block injection.

My new consultant- neurosurgeon, rather than orthopaedic surgeon (complete tool) says the nerve damage is irreversable, and i have to find something to take my mind off the pain- so i bought a 30 acre wood, on the side of a mountain, that the FC and two landed estates couldnt do anything with- and i will succeed where others have failed, because i will do it, or i will die trying. Failure is not an option.

Could always use some help though 😃

Im (only) 39 and I certainly dont want to go through what you have had to endure. what ideas do you have for your plot in the woods? where are you based?

Live in ashford, kent. The woodland is in abergavenny, south wales, where we go on holiday. So unfortunately i dont get to go and play every day, but spend all day every day when we are on holiday in the woods. I feel , well not sure, hard to explain, but better somehow in the woods.

 

 

30 acres lf mountainside. Mostly norway spruce and western hemlock.

 

No internal access. So obviously in my state, nice rides and tracks throughout, so i can get about on my quad bike.
