Are you or not in Pain right now?

[Smithy]

The pain I have right now is sciatica and a slipped disc.
I have had this pain on and off for 10 years now the pain comes and goes every few months..

It gets worse in the colder months I try to stay active to ease the pain without taking modification.

Sorry to hear you're having those pains, Smithy. And for such a long time, too. Sciatica can be the worst. My mother, who was never sick, had a bout with it once and it really did her in. The doctor put her on steroids for a short period, along with physical therapy, and she got over it. We never knew what caused it.

For me it seems it's always some little annoying thing lately, but only minor stuff, by comparison. I try to figure out how to adjust. About that time, something new comes along. Reminds me of the song, Rhinestone Cowboy:

"There's been a lot of compromising on the road to my horizon."
