Crushed L5... broken pieces too. Going to see surgeon to discuss options. One option is to deal with the pain for 3 months in hopes the excess bone gets absorbed and "Self-Corrects", but that is only an option. Not sure what I'm going to do, but I might need to try my own "Personal" remedy and see if that helps. A daily dose of fishing for the next three weeks should help alleviate the pain or at least make me forget about it during that time. See, I should have been a doctor!
The doctor was funny, I kept asking him questions like "Can I do anymore damage to it say... if I wanted to go fishing like a few times a week?". "Now what exactly should I not be doing? Would going in a boat be a bad thing?" He told me "I'm not giving you a prescription slip to go fishing... you will have to do that at your own risk. Trout fishing may be fine, but I wouldn't go tuna fishing.". I told him "Great, why don't you put a bullet in me to just end it now then". His look was worth $1,000 bucks!
Oh well... time to start thinking of how I am going to tackle this.
