Why I don't drive fun cars any more

Had to have a abdominal CT scan. A side effect was that it got my back in the picture. Here's the reason I got rid of the GT (among others).

My back sucks!

All of the discs are compressed more than the 2018 baseline. The ones that are collapsed on the tight side (viewing keft) have lost more of whatever disc was present on the left side.

I still don't understand why if hips and knees can be replaced why they can't go in with a caulking gun and a tube of g.e. silicone and just caulk it up

(I'll try to fix the rotation later when I'm not on the cell phone...)

As they say life's a ***** and then you die.

It's been so gradual I didn't really notice but this sure explains alot.

No. Turns out it's hereditary from my mother's side. Both my mom and my uncle her brother had back problems. And I've passed both the back and lazy eye problems on to both of our daughters.

The amazing thing is the radiologist report says I have no kidney, liver, pancreas, etc issues but completely ignored the spine. Didn't even mention it. If I was a radiologist I would have written "internal organs are fine but I know this wasn't part of which I was supposed to look at but your back is totally f*d up."

Geez. I will say a prayer that the doctors can provide you some sort of relief to make your life easier.

Doctors say that the fix is cure worse than the disease. Mobility will be severely affected. Meanwhile anti-inflammatories work pretty well.
