Raven LuniWell thats me in a world of pain for the rest of the day just from carrying a heavy bag of shopping. I need to accept that I can nolonger do these things.
OldAndCrankyAnyone here had surgery for #SpinalStenosis ? I might be dealing with that soon.
And thats the left arm starting to fail now - barely had enough strength to change gears in the car...
Malka Beth@the I agree, it's like when I refer to myself as an invertebrate (as my spine has more damaged disks than intact & fully functional ones by a factor of at least 2 to 1) and yes I've been told to "stop that", when it's a pretty close to reality of a joke.
I'm not harming anyone in this & it's tiresome to get others trying to micromanage my choice in terms used for my medical conditions.
