TShadow,
I spent 20 years in the Air Force, mostly doing minor maintenace on life saving equipment, kind of assembly line tear down, inspect and rebuild. After retirement I have spent three years behind a keyboard for give or take 8 hours a day.
I am going to look into how my ergonomics at work can improve and make some changes. i am on a couple pain relievers mobic, motrin and also a muscle relaxer for bad days.
The great news is after retiring from the AF my medical bills are 100% covered, so money for testing and any subsequent treatment won't drain the bank.
I will make sure to follow all the advice here closley and ask you all plenty of questions along the way.
I will add everyone here to my prayer list.
