I'm truly hoping it's not that, and boy I really sympathize with the pain you're dealing with. It really puts a crimp (no pun intended) in everything.
ITold the PT guy the other day that if this is what getting old's like it really sucketh (to borrow Cayo's term).

Somewhat. The face thing is now gone and the right leg is mainly feeling again, but the feet are still numb and the left arm's still feeling funky. And hang it all, I forgot to tell him about that stuff. So it's on the agenda for tonight.
That was the problem when I was talking to the physiatrist--I told him I wouldn't be able to tell the difference between the stupid MS numbness and any numbness from a disc problem. Sometimes my feet can be numb for weeks.

Nothing wrong with an educated guess and sharing, Cherie! And I'm sure he's making an educated guess too, so you two are even in my eyes.

Lo siento, amiga. Pagar al gaitero es una perra!

(
I confess I had to look up "al gaitero.")

Ouch! I'm a Tanqueray and Maker's Mark person, but Grey Goose tain't bad. I forget what the stuff is with the clear bottle and the etched trees on it, but that's not bad either. And Bell's is pretty good as well but you can't get that in the States.
Hmm..... If you don't like Night Train or MD 20-20 you could always resort to Thunderbird! LOL Or.... you're resourceful--how about Moonshine.
