Slipped disk will keep me from surfing till summer

It's been a few months now but I've been too bummed out about this to share it. I'll be out of commission until summer due to L4/L5 disc problems. The injury was not body boarding related... just moving some furniture around the house. The good news is I'm no longer in excruciating pain and the prognosis is good; no surgery needed and I'm mostly recovered.

I have a awesome new chiro (dinker not a cracker... I'll explain later) who got me 60% better in about a week. Considering it took me 3 hours of heat therapy and massage to get me out of bed prior to seeing him (and then I limped horribly and used a walking stick) this was phenomenal.

I'll post again later and share my MRI and some other treatment details.

Stay stoked,
DH
