Hope you will be better soon, Sabrina.

Sorry to hear about your condition. Glad you have a good team of doctors. I know you have a great support person at home. I wish you well with your recovery.

Just 24 hours after the procedure...real results!

Yesterday was one of the most relaxing days have ever spent at work and it made me realize that I have been in chronic pain for probably years and how much it has affected my everyday sense of joy and well being. Last night I slept for the first time in years in a relaxed position, no pain upon moving and legs straight, spine and neck comfortable. I looked in the mirror when I awoke and saw a well rested, younger looking version of myself. So happy.

I hope this lasts!

What great news, Sabrina! If only everyone had such success...you may have prompted a run on VFTT members' doctors: "I'll have what she's having!"

\As did cake and an iced latte.

Back in two weeks for a repeat.

Um...I don't think you need to wait two weeks before having another latte.

Glad the shots are working for ya.

A younger looking Unadogger, Oh wow!!!

You'd better be careful though if the progress keeps up you might look in the mirror and find yourself sucking on a pacifier.

Actually, with all that you've been through I still shake my head and marvel that you were able to do the Boston marathon.

We're wishing you a full recovery.

It was a slow journey but I jogged every step. 5 hours 40 minutes. Not the 4:30 I had planned at the start of training. I was beaten by a 72 year old woman with plastic flowers on her head, but hey..I did it.

MichaelJ said to me a few weeks ago when I was lamenting my back issues, "at least you had the chance to run the Boston". Gratitude...a good reminder.

Thanks everyone!

I just hope it lasts! I feel weird today, moving in my old familiar ways that I must have developed to protect my back, and finding myself NOT hurting, and wondering why I am moving that way!

Sorry to hear of your condition Sabrina but glad to hear that it's improving. All I can say is listen to what your body is telling you and there is no substitute for a positive attitude.
