[TurboRay]

Hope your back is feeling better!

It is, THANX! [Image: happy0034.gif]

It couldn't have felt much worse than when I awoke from the general anesthesia used during surgery. I was on a morphine "drip" for a week, with the option of pushing a little hand-held "pump button" to turbocharge the dose. It got pushed a LOT! 

I'm nearly 3 weeks "out" from the last of a 2-part operation (where they fused the sacrum and 5 lower vertebrae [L1-L5]  in my spine.....with bubble gum, duct tape and super glue). I'm currently "tapering off" of Norco (opioid pain reliever) and Zanaflex (muscle relaxer).
