Not really...No one really does, but probably a combination of a half century of hard labor, genetics, diet, medical treatments, drugs. It just comes with the territory of working hard and getting old I'm afraid.



haha, was I a bad influence? One dab and I'm thinking of a nap

And I was just pondering. Yes. Bad influence. Lights are up. Timer just needs to be plugged in. And I'm not moving 6" inlines without help. May wipe the dust off thermal controller. Damn a small space takes work. I'm dabbin. Cheers.

Yep been riots over this one and they are forcing construction workers to get the jab. I’m over it couldn’t even go fishing on my birthday first time in like 7 years. But I got my second jab yesterday, they are opening up at 80% vaccinated.

Are you close to hitting 80%? I saw some of the riot videos on youtube. Scary shit!

Happy birthday, sorry we missed it.

Retrolisthesis is an uncommon joint dysfunction that occurs when a single vertebra in the back slips backward along or underneath a disc.

Shit...Maybe this is what the doc meant when he said things aren't where they should be?!

It's a less common abnormality but it isn't that terrible. Causation is important in it could be some from the hip arthroplasty and most from the degenerative arthritis (you need to compare it with previous xray studies). Do you have any prior to the arthroplasty.

If injections help and you want them seek an anesthesiologist who specialize in pain control. Those are the guys that can do it flawlessly (usually). Ask him how many he's done and what his complication rate is. If he gets upset move on to someone else if you find injections helpful.

You have a small right curvature of your spine. Do you have xrays demonstrating that prior to your hip arthroplasty? If not it's possibly related. I'd have a talk with my hip surgeon about this and the retrolisthesis. It's possible you are done waiting.

Because of the osteophyte formation I'd check your motor for any weakness, or loss of function. If you complained of either I'd want an MRI. You also need your reflexes checks and charted to follow. Also check out your last MRI and see if you have osteophytes imaged and/or reported. If so and you're in a lot of pain I'd ask for a referral to a neurosurgeon (make sure he was a good one) to look at the xrays (he'll order an MRI). Sharp bone spurs in the wrong area can cause you a LOT of pain. Depending on the area they can do microsurgery to rid you of them and that could help a lot. Look for a neurosurgeon that does minimally invasive spinal surgery.

I'd say it sounds like a pain in the ass but overall more like a pain in the back. I'm so sorry you're experiencing this.

No more waiting for ex-ray results! not terrible?? @curious2garden

PROCEDURE: XR LUMBAR SPINE 2-3 VIEWS

DATE AND TIME: 9/23/2021 11:55 AM EDT

TECHNIQUE: AP, lateral, and coned down lateral views of the lumbosacral
spine.

COMPARISON: Lumbar spine radiographs 8/10/2012.

FINDINGS:
There is mild dextroscoliosis. Retrolisthesis of L2 on L3, L3 on L4, and
L5 on S1. No acute compression deformity. Moderate to severe multilevel
degenerative changes throughout the lumbar spine with of disc space
narrowing and endplate degenerative changes and osteophyte formation.
This appears to have progressed since 2012. Multilevel facet arthrosis.

I so miss the eighties when it was only "Cranial rectal inversion procedures" as outpatient.
