Things I'm happy about today

[Juanita]

Davy Crockett said: Y'all can go to Hell, and I will go to Texas. Gotta love a Greene county man. Lost his life along with Bowie and others at the Alamo. I am happy that I don't have to fight like that.

Well, this little gem makes me VERY happy to be retired:
Has Your Boss Ever Pooped In Your Lunchbox?

This is where I found the link, and I love the comments:
boss pooped in people's lunch bags and set off small bombs for fun

My mother had epidural injections many years ago for lower back pain (very different from your situation), and they worked great. Hope yours work as well!

My daughter played volleyball in HS and carried 100 lb bag on her back because "nobody" used a locker. Told her. She was diagnosed with herniated disc at age 19. Her dad had spinal stenosis. Anyway, she had a couple of ESIs while she was a student at UT. Took a few days but she got relief. Someone on campus stole the handicap placard out of her unlocked car. Told her. I am happy that I don't have back issues. Just this dang wrist. Hope you get some relief AV.

The headache was my first symptom of a punctured spinal cord. Drink that Mountain Dew and eat a chocolate bar to be on the safe side. Trust me, if they did puncture your spinal cord, you do not want it to progress any further.

had chocolate
bout 3 cups coffee today, yesterday

The coffee didn't help me. I got to the point I could not do anything to soothe the pain. I tried laying in every position, standing, sitting. Lawd, it was painful! I had to have the wife drive us back to Florida. She had to pull over every half hour to let me throw up. Felt as if all the fluid in my skull leaked out and my brain was the clapper in a bell.

Good description.

@ArdentVol, if this is a spinal fluid leak, you probably don’t want to go into the weekend with it. They do a simple procedure called a blood patch - IF this is the cause of your headache. I hope it winds up soon, whatever the cause, and great news on your back improvement!
