Diagnosed in 2002 with Spondylolisthesis & Spondylolisis. I had surgery to correct it in 2003 which left me with complications that caused scar tissue to grow in the spinal column which has left me with an incurable and unoperable spinal condition (arachnoiditis). I am now a stay at home dad taking care of our 2 boys, 11 & 2.

I wonder if the heat is the cause of the back aches yesterday and today. I know they say a dry heat is ok for you hence the large number of people who move to the more arid parts of the country, but here in the plains it gets hot and humid. It just really makes me wonder if the heat by itself is ok but when you add the moisture does it have a different effect? Guess I have some reading to do tomorrow.
Friend of mine is a disabled Vet, he said the humidity is a definite contributor to some of his more excrutiatingly painful times...then again so is the extreme cold.
ReplyDeleteI bet this heat could be making you hurt more.
ReplyDeleteWell we pulled out the dehumidifier and cranked the AC down another 2 degrees. I am not happy about it as that means a higher electric bill but if I can get a bit of relief from it then I guess it is worth it.
