I have three conditions that cause chronic discomfort, stopping just short of pain. My sleep is a mess. I do what I can for myself with physical therapy, self-acupressure with balls and foam roller but fortunately headed off an additional painful back problem with PT. Sleep is the worst since I'm alone with the discomfort and rest often is illusive.

Fortunately I also have strong passions, so my drive to get things done help helps my mind focus on the goal rather than my limitations. My attempts at internet support for these conditions are short lived, because unless I'm learning new solutions, focusing doesn't help. I much prefer to spend time with others who share my positive interests rather than the physical issues.

All the best. I hope you find solutions for your back problem.
