Surgery is not recommended at this stage though is very likely later in life. Osteoarthritis isnt something you are meant to have at 40 , but because I suffered a bad injury in my early 20's , that area now has osteoarthritis.
My last bad injury to my back was when I was working 2 years ago with a sledge hammer , I split the side out of a disc and the nucleous was pushing out against a spinal nerve. ( Yes , I shouldnt do Laboring jobs but I dont have formal qualifications in anything. Disability Pensions dont pay bills ).
If I take Oxycontin I can function fine , my back hurts but I dont really know that because it is a strong painkiller ( unless I sit or stand for a prolonged period of time ). I live a pretty much normal day to day life , though some of the side effects arent enjoyable. I intend to try and work 3 days a week to avoid getting paid a Centrelink benefit. There are plenty of people out there doing it harder than me with it such as Bulbous who has to try and survive on the pittance DSP pays. A mate of mine is also prescribed Oxycontin. He has been waiting 4 years for an operation to replace a disc in his neck. Unfortunately he is on the public list.
Anyway , enough about me and we are getting way off topic. Someone always uses any information against me in some way or form either abusively which I suspect post 17 is or in other ways. But then I have never hidden behind a computer screen , so I am an easy target.
