vertebral subluxation of the spine

jnellie Posts: 924 Joined: 2002/02/24	2002/10/23, 06:38 PM yup that is what i have it is an abnormality that interfers with the nerves..in other words some bones in my spine are out of place and hitting some nerves i guess it can be pretty serious if not corrected it is called the silent killer becaause it can slowly eat away at your health so i have to see my chiropractor 3x a week for a month and hopefully that will take care of it so i can not work out but i can do stretching exercises and walk that is about it oh well......take care...

I am not hurt now but 2 months ago it was like that I could not walk or put my shoes on (gout). Then my son was born and my memebership ran out. So it has been a while since I have had a good workout too. The thing that has kept me sane is talking here. Stay focused and stay ont he diet. Can you do cardio at all? I am trying to get back to running now and make it a good strong habit, so when I go back I am that much closer to the long haul goal. Come on Savage Man! Prove to us young'uns what you can do!!!!!! -------------- Those who lift understand it. Those who do not, think we are crazy!

It is the worst feeling in the world! The walking and stretching should help at least it makes you feel you are accomplishing something. Take care and we will see you back soon! :) Melissa -------------- Excellence is an art won by training and habituation.
