Well ive just gone and slipped a disk!

In total agony, after x rays etc a prolapsed disk was identified- cant even think about skiing at the momment- walking would be adequate!
At least i have a few month to recover (hopefully) Sad

Ouch - suffer from a trapped nerve on and off in my shoulder and neck, can fully sympathise with you. Hopefully you'll be fighting fit soon :-)

"fighting fit!" funny you should say that as i was fighting (well restraining someone) when it happened!

Hiya Ian,

Get to a chiropractors see if they can help, I did my back in 94, no probs now just the odd twinge so I go back for treatment occasionally. Also good book to get " Treat your own back by Robin McKensie" see amazon.

S.P. Cheers

three months?? bit severe, hospitals no good, you have to get to a physio, get treatment, i was back up and running again after about three weeks, then just be careful and dont over stress it. good luck
