I don't know. My back and pelvic region is just in chronic agony right now. Like where everything hurts. Not just referred pain but I feel like my bones are weak.
OK! I am present and feel fine, if exhausted, in SC. I agree with @Faelixx about checking in...at least semi-regularly what with the Rona everywhere. I wanted to make sure my peeps were still rockin' and rollin'. I'm not exhausted from being sick...but from cats, cats, Mama, Mama, Mama, cats cats and more cats. Then Mama, Mama, Mama, Mama.... time for a doobie... cats cats, Mama, Mama, Mama...etc etc time for a doobie ok...time for a doobie.
Unless they tested specifically for osteo (or any arthritis), it wouldn't be picked up on. I don't think, anyway. I do know that when a person is tested for arthritis, they look for certain genetic markers mostly. Does anyone in your family have any type of arthritis that you know of?
Damn I thought I was doing my usual middle of the night 4 am wake up And its only 11:30 I gotta get a handle on this sleep thing Hey has anyone heard from eggsprog lately
I've read there is (are?) more than one type of osteoporosis. There are hereditary forms of it, and there are mutations in the genes for collagen in the hereditary type. Of course there must be other types. I'm sure I have arthritis where I've broken bones through the years, or a bone was fractured without a complete break...those places flare up nicely too. There are meds to help halt the progression of arthritis, and help with the pain. I'm not talking about pain killers either. Those may make you feel good for a minute...but we ALL KNOW that pain killers really and truly don't come close to killing real pain and let you remain conscious. I hate you're going through this, @Irminsul.
Yeah. I'm sure they would have tested my blood for arthritic problems and dillemas so I won't freak out too much now. I just can't stand it. Always in pain. Such a chronic agony feels like I want to stretch my legs and I'm just waiting for my pelvis and back to go pop and feel good but they don't pop and feel good feels like if they do im gonna hurt myself even worse.
Do those hot baths help? I bet a hot tub with jets aimed right at your lower back would really feel good. You're smart and can install things...have you ever thought of getting a hot tub? Or maybe y'all do have one? Its been quite a while since I've been in a hot tub...but dang I remember letting those jets fire on my back. oh my. I need a pleasure emoji. lol
Since we briefly discussed it the other night, I'll bring this up. I watched a Science Show on Dark Matter and Dark Energy from about 15 years ago and the interesting thing to me was the forecast for the end of the Universe based on these phenonemas. If Dark Matter overtakes Dark Energy, the universe would eventually collapse in on itself in what is dubbed The Big Crunch. If Dark Energy dominates, which to the best of their knowledge is the accurate state of the universe than two scenarios are likely... A) Dark Energy remains more or less constant to it's current level and Galaxies eventually drift away from each other, stars burn out resulting in a desolate universe dubbed The Big Chill B) Dark Energy continually grows stronger to the point it overwhelms gravity and galaxies, stars, planets all get torn apart and eventually even molecules and atoms can no longer hold together, this is dubbed The Big Rip.
I was just booming my mdma play list at work and all was well everyone bopping heads and then embarrassingly... SO TELL ME WHAT YOU WANT WHAT YOU REALLY REALLY WANT. Everyone just laughed at me.. I took that song off our play list.
