Oh honey, I’m so sorry for you. I suffer from sciatica and I know how bad a bad back can be. I hear that many people do finally get relief. In fact I haven’t had an attack since I lost weight— although I’m expecting one any day now since I’ve gained half the weight I lost back since injuring my knee.

I will be sacrificing tobacco to the gods of back pain in hopes that everyone will feel better.
