Well I managed to get ahold of the doctor's office and we have an appointment on Tuesday, as Monday is a holiday. His symptoms are the same and he is getting no relief at all. I didn't even leave the house yesterday for fear he'd fall down and not be able to get up. I'm going to brave it today and get some of the heat wraps and also a bag of frozen peas and see if either gives him any relief. He does alot of heavy lifting at work, but this time, he was under a machine and when he had finished working on it, he rolled to get out from under it and heard something snap and that is when the pain started. So he must have twisted his spinal column or tore a nerve or tendon or something. With all this great advice I'm tending to think it is the sciatic nerve. I googled it and he has all the symptoms described. So I guess we'll have no further info until Tuesday, when I'm guessing they'll send him for an MRI. The T3's he was prescribed are doing nothing for him. Maybe I should just get him drunk All kidding aside, thanks so much for the advice, and Paul thanks you for all the well wishes. Joey

Great pics Cliff. Wish we could have attended Crappiesteve, where the heck you been old man Love the pink hats. Joey

Well you're lucky I didn't show up then John. I had a bit of an incident with a bottle of pink dye last month. It was supposed to be fushia highlights, but blended in all over after my rinse. Its mostly red now, but Paul was calling me Pinky Tustcadaro for awhile Joey

Great pics Brian. Looks like alot of people just drove out. How many people do ya figure turned up? Joey

Looks like it was a great time for a great cause. Sorry we missed but there would have been not "rockin" with Paul's back. Awesome that you raised so much, that's fantastic. Thanks for the pics and vids B. Lookin good bud Joey

I got one for Xmas and it worked for a day and then didn't work again. Joey

Great replies here. Thanks everyone. I'll mention the chiro as you have all said and maybe it will make him think about it and then I can make him an appt. Getting him there might be tricky. I'll also go out and get that heat wrap, thanks GCD. As I said above, sorry Emil, Simcoebob PM'd me and so he can have the tickets. Joey

Thanks Cliff, this is what I was afraid of. I mentioned the chiropractor but he's not really a believer in them, but at this point, I may be able to persuade him. I do believe each day has gotten a bit worse, which can't be good. I'll see if he'll go today, I know one who is close. And Simcoebob has PM'd me so he can have the tickets. Joey

If you haven't left yet, unfortunately we can't go. Paul hurt his back at work on Monday and we have been ever hopeful that he would have recovered by now, but he is just getting worse. PM me if you don't already have free tickets and you can use mine, they're at the door. Paul has already had xrays and we have not heard what the problem is yet, but I can tell you, there is a BIG problem. The poor man cannot even walk now. I don't know what to do. He's in so much pain. He has been using a hockey stick as a staf to do anything, but it still takes about 15 minutes to get up and go to the washroom, which is about all he gets up for. Anyone had back pain this bad? He says the pain is shooting down his legs too, to the point he can't put pressure on them. Could it be muscle, tendon or bone? Any thoughts from someone who has had back pain would be appreciated. Joey

That looks awesome Very nicely done. I like it. joey

Hi Doubleheader, it will be nice to meet you. Yes we have a tourney, it is on the Saturday and is a pike tournament.

We also all bring a pot luck item to go with the fish we fry after the tourney, salad or some other specialty we all make. Hope this answers your question. Look forward to seeing you there. Joey

Wow Cliff, thanks for the heads up. I'll try all the tried and true ways they say not to catch a bug, wash hands alot, don't touch your nose our eyes etc. Glad you are feeling a bit better. Joey
