I also have back issues, degenerative disk disease, sciatica, scoliosis, herniated disk, bulging disks - Fun!
And, have been in the same place as you, Hawkeye, since last Saturday, when all I did was bend over while vacuuming.
My back froze and I was home alone, then got scared because I couldn't straighten up at first and then trying to walk was almost intollerable. Knew I needed an ice pack and to make it to the bed and scared. Then, my stomach started, but mine, I think, was from being so scared... That was real fun - couldn't sit, could barely walk and had to "run" to the bathroom!
Supposed to start new P.T. with an orthopedist and new spinal decompression therapy with a chiropractor - maybe the combination of alternative and regular medicine is the key!
Like Toady, I can't take anything but Tylenol either.
Here's hoping that your back has recovered, along with your tummy!
Best Wishes for a Magical 2010! ~ Dorothy
