Because you cant see a back problem you are considered to be 'putting it on' here. Im 57 and a primary school teacher. I am always on my feet or sitting on little chairs ( I know I shouldnt, but I sit on them without thinking) I would willingly take early retirement on ill health grounds, but thats not likely to happen.

dear redjune
i have had 2 cervical neck
but point also with diagnosis with stenosis
here is the thing i experience all the pain
not only lee
but right where you are also doc
no disrespect too anyone
if you must and can i would have
done things differently
the personal experiences
are different for everyone
the pain unbearable
i.m down to a suggestion
seeing a doctor for a pain pump
let me not go on
they are correct about the mechanics
that all changes along with new pain
you never had before
do your homework
never go against your gut feeling
be well all
much love
many different kinds of pain
nevertheless it is pain
