I need to whine. Anyone got some cheese to go with it?
I had to lift my 70 pound Rottie into the truck Tuesday to take him to the vet. Actually I had to lift him in three (!) times. I lifted him in. He fell out. I lifted him in again. Then he jumped out when I got out to open the gate. So lift him back in. The second time I lifted him I felt something pull in my back (I've got a herniated disc between L4 and L5). I though oh-oh at the time, but was focused on getting him to the vet. I put a heat pack on it that night to loosen the tight muscles. I thought it was okay.
Wednesday I did some gentle stretches and again thought it was okay. Wednesday night I reached to pick a t-shirt off the bed and it seized up. Hurts like bloody blue blazes! I know what I need to do for it. I know it will take time for it to calm down again. Been dealing with this shite for over 30 years now so I know what to expect. Still what a pain!
