Guess it's been bad for a while. Remember at WGIthis summer when I had to sit in Gregs fold up chair?

sitting in the S2K always made my hip feel better.
I wonder if my surgeon will form fit me to a cr seat.
Jeff,
We all are aging and our bodies will remind us of this in very cruel ways. I spent my youth riding motocross and did so for more than 30 yrs. I eventually fell and broke my neck in my 20's, an I suffered for 20+ years with neck pain and in 2003 I finally gave in and had a cervical fusion.

Best decision I ever made, the pain went away immediately and I got my quality of life back. I felt so good I went out and bought a new fangled 4-stroke motocross bike and went back to riding with the kids.

Worst decision I even made, I crashed enough to re-injure my neck and in 2014 I was forced to have a second major neck operation. It was successful and I have good movement and a lot less pain.

Bottom line, these doctors that perform spinal surgery are good and they know they are restoring the quality of life for their patients. If you want to discuss further call me and we can talk.
As A2 says "don't give up just yet".

You and I sound like Brothers From Another Mother.
I appreciate your kind words of encouragement and hope. Just walking to and back from my shop is an amazing challenge right now.
The surgeon put me on a new nerve calming drug. It has taken the edge off but I am still prone.
I'm dieting hard as it can only help as decompression seems like the panecea.
3 minutes of standing take 15-20minutes to recover from.

I just want to be the guy who does a lot of S2K sightings next Spring !

Could have been a hallucination but I saw a BB with wheels that look like those on my '06 in the eastbound breakdown lane of the NYS Thruway just west of Exit 24. Trunk lid up

I was headed west about 10;00 am Monday and it was 12 deg out.!

Hope it worked out for whoever it was.

Doesn't sound like someone we know. Hopefully it worked out for that person.

That might be Ernie Yue's AP2, not sure why he would be at EG Home Depot.

Initially I wondered if it was Ernie too. But then it did not seem to have the ding from the chainsaw that dropped on it. Or maybe he got it fixed.
