Sciatica

Today is a first day of real improvement. I did not sleep with a pillow under my knees and suprised at how I got out of bed this morning. Pain for sure is less. Still typing while standing as much as possible.

Will evaluate whether riding will work around 2:00 PM. It's all about perceived pain. In previous years I decided it was better to live with the pain than taking so many perscriptions per doctors orders. They just want to medicate it away. I figured less or no drugs, and just drink some alcohol in the evening. Once my spine was aligned which hurt like a bastard, the pain went away and everything is good.

Like others have mentioned. I avoid any heavy lifting, no dead lifts, squats, or military press.
