Let me tell you how life can change in a second. In 2013 I was diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer that had spread to my liver. It did not look good for my outcome with a 15% survival rate. Two operations and a heavy round of chemotherapy was what we started with, my last treatment my with was diagnosed with a very aggressive breast cancer. But God was not done with us and we are both cancer free today. We are just 14 months away from retirement and we plan full timing it. If I could I would retire now but we will be in pretty good financial shape if we stay the course. Life is short and do not take it for granted. Our God is an awesome God! Praying for your complete recovery and a good job!

@BrokenDreamsReborn Месяц назад

Oh wow! What an amazing testimony that you just shared with us! God is so, so good! We are so glad to hear that y'all are cancer free and are able to share your story with us! We wish y'all well on transitioning to full time life too! Also, congrats on your upcoming retirement! We also have a couple of friends that were diagnosed with stage 4 cancer that are now cancer free and it is amazing what God can do! Thanks for the prayers! We really appreciate them and we hope to see y'all out on the road someday! Thanks for watching too! ~ Shion and Matthew

For a man like myself with multiple disc injuries, I will tell you this, ice is your best friend 10 minutes intervals for five to six times a day. Back pain is no joke. I hope you feel better soon. Just make sure you ice and relax. May even try some heat and then Ice afterwards.

Ice ice ice! I’ve had a hip replacement and 3 level back surgery with a fusion. I can relate to your pain! I lived on ice and ibuprofen until I couldn’t work another minute. At that point I agreed to take real pain meds and they made life bearable again. I still take them as I still need both shoulders and one knee replaced. I don’t feel anything but relief. No buzz, no foggy brain. People are surprised when they hear that I am even talking them. I wish you well and hope you find relief soon!!

First of all, I'm sorry to hear that Matthew was injured, and I hope he's feeling better now. Since losing Ed while boondocking with you two, I've had to learn to handle everything on my own. There’s no other option-you just do it. My son showed me the 'swing' method to get the propane tanks back into the RV. Believe me, it’s not easy without Ed, but if I want to continue the RV life, I have to learn how to do everything myself. Love you two!

I lived in an older model RV for three years (it was family owned) in a beautiful RV resort in Texas. I chose not to rent, but to stay in the RV as I was only originally planned to be in Texas for about a year. I ended up being in Texas still during the Great Freeze winter and then battled a really hot summer with no provided shade trees before I left state. I, too, handled the RV by myself. I dealt with roof leaks, black tank issues, etc. Before I left, I had no hot water. It was so hot that summer, I didn't even need hot water to shower! I just filled and poured a big glass of water as my shower water. (I used the glass since i had no hot water, and there was not enough pressure to run the water for a regular shower), but the water temperature made my showers to be refreshing...lol I left last fall and went back to my home state. I was never so glad not to be living in an RV! I'm down with temporary (weekends or so) staying in an RV. Kudos to those who embrace it, but RV living is just not for me.

I had this problem years ago and after giving up on doctors,I went to a chiropractor. I was amazed when the problem went away within a few days.Go see a chiropractor since doctors can only prescribe drugs but a Chiropractor can put back and manipulate a disk that is out of place. God bless😀

Praying for you. Mine wasn't sciatica. Everyone is different. Mine was a cold water feeling going down the front of my leg. Couldn't walk well or go upstairs. I couldn't get in a bed, and would start IV's standing up at work. Boom --one day something happened and the pain was so bad. A pinched nerve. Ended up in the hospital putting blankets on floor and lying with feet on chair. CT done and a ruptured disk with nerve pinched discovered. Long, long story however the day I finally saw the surgeon he got an OK to do surgery that afternoon-- outpatient. I hadn't eaten, prayers answered , surgery picking shrimp 1.5 hrs but I got my life back. Have no idea your issue however will continue to pray.

I have 2 herniated discs and out of 14 years of epidural steroid injections, pain patches, back braces, etc. within 2 chiropractor visits and I was walking normally. I went ever week for a year and I’ve strengthened my core using resistance bands ((which you can do anywhere )

I'm so sorry from what has happened to you. Just know God will show you a way. I got hurt working four thousand feet in the coal mines. The top gave way and a large wall clasped on me forcing me to the ground. They had to reconstruct my Rib cage completely. They had to pull my ribs back to what they thought was the location that it should of been in before the accident . You know what I do just fine they had me on all kinds of medications, but I have stopped taking almost all of them. Sometimes its hard but I just do not give up. I will pray that God sends his healing sprit to made you as good as new. I love your videos and enjoy watching you two so much. I wish I would say something that would make it easier for you both.

First thought, Sciatica, but from a Bulging Disc or Herniated Disc. Had this happen to me on a 10 day trip through upper Michigan in Trailer. Had it before at home so knew what it was. The Bulging Disc rubs on the Sciatic Nerve. Feels like Fire! I Screamed out at night getting off a Foam bed. Was terrible. Paralyzed legs mostly. Campground Mgr had been through it too. I was taking Ibuprofen 2 at a time every 4 hours. Some help but Faded at 3 hrs. He told me he had to take 4 at once every 4 hours for a few days to get through his. So I tried 3-4 every 4 and it really helped. Hard on Kidneys I suppose. 🙄 The Main Treatment that reduces it the fastest is Icing! Flat Blue Gel Packs from Freezer slipped into a cloth slipover cover or wrapped a thin cotton cloth. At first the shock is hard to take, wrap in a Washcloth if so to Insulate it more. Just gotta keep Cold on and around pain points to reduce Disc and Nerve Swelling so they shrink back away from each other. Use the pack till it gets warmed out and flexible. I would Ice for hours with breaks between Packs. I got this info from several Chiropractors. Slow at first but daily use for a week can do amazing results! If you use a Heating pad you Increase Swelling of Disc. I made a big mistake with that early on, self treatment. Really need a Chiro to X-Ray to see if Degeneration is there and which Discs are damaged. They can also do Stretch Alignments standing up or face down on padded table. I have to stand on bottom steps facing table, with table Vertical. Then they slowly lay me forward and down with powered tilt table. Depending on injury type they can do Pain Blocking with their cool Stun (mechanical) Hammer Tool. (Spring Loaded). Targets multiple Nerve Points. Chiro would be most helpful over Docs and they can Prescribe Meds too. Hope this Helps Matt! 😊

@BrokenDreamsReborn Месяц назад

Thank you for sharing all the info with us and thanks for sharing your story too!

Just saw your video and I pray you’re feeling better now! That said, I totally get what you said about life changing in an instance. A year ago I spent a week walking/hiking in Alaska. I was training for a long distance hike. When I left Alaska I was fine; when I changed planes in Seattle I was limping so I knew something was wrong. When I landed in Hawaii I couldn’t walk. Bottom line is that I’d blown out my knee. Thankfully, a new knee has put me on the road back, but it’s taken a long time.

I used to build communication towers and was in really good shape and one night coming home from work a driver coming at me made a left turn right in front of me as we both went through the intersection at 55-60 miles per hour in opposite directions making contact just past head on. Neither vehicle went more than 20 feet from point of impact. Destroyed my pickup and my spine. I didn't know about the spine until the next day. When I woke up I could barely move any part of my body without level 10 pain to the tenth power. 37 neck and back surgeries later I have metal plates and ceramic discs and I have 2 spinal cord stimulators one cervical and one lumber. I hope to complete my living junk yard with a thoracic stimulator. Changed my life forever in the blink of an eye. But I'm alive.

As someone who see's a chiropractor on a regular basis I feel your pain. For me "tweaking" my back is totally unpredictable and without warning. I can lift heavy things often improperly and be totally fine but something as simple as tying my shoe can throw it out and be in pain for weeks afterwards.

Matthew, i feelyour pain,brother. I had to go on disability and take an early retirement. Didn't plan on it so soon. Had to sell our home. Bought an RV. Found out this arthritis is very progressive. I had at least another 7 or 8 years to work. Anyhow, trying not to whine, but like you, can't get around well. It has put a lot more responsibility on my wife. So now we are sitting in an RV park in Texas and not traveling at all. Do you have leg cramps at all? Dang they hurt. I've tried everything from aspirin to gummies, and nothing has worked. I use a cane and a walker. Can't sleep in a bed and sleep in a chair at night. Almost brings me to tears that someone has this problem, too.

I finally went to a spine doctor and instead of a herniated disk it's a torn ligament (kissing Spine Syndrome). Completely different treatment and better treatment.

@franklentz5388 Месяц назад

I understand the predicament. 6 years ago, before I retired, we had just purchased a class A motorhome, just to get some practice in I took the wife and a few of her friends up to a local lake in the mountains about 50 miles away. So on Sunday the day we were supposed to leave I got up early to do some trout fishing as the sun was coming up, everyone else was still sleeping. As I made my way to the waters edge I had to cross over a patch of some sort of salt grass which is kind of slick, add to that I was not wearing proper footwear but my favorite flipflops, add to that the grass had a frost on it to boot. My second or third side step as I moved down the bank my right foot lost traction and slipped, the slip was only about a foot but I lost my balance and the flopflop suddenly regained a grip, that caused my foot to loose grip to the flip flop. All said and done that caused my right ankle to flex beyond a humanly impossible angle. As this only took a second to occur time seemed to slow down, as I was falling, as my ankle was being turned but before I actually hit the ground I felt and heard my ankle break with what felt and sounded like someone breaking a carrot in two. I played there for a minute without moving saying to myself “I just broke my ankle”. There was no cell service, yelling for my wife was not an option. I had to muster the will to get up, walk back to the RV and then tell her what had just happened. At first she didn’t believe me, that was until I showed her my purple and swollen ankle, she almost went into shock and fainted at that point. So getting back to being prepared, she had never driven the RV, add to that I have a jeep cherokee toad that I’d brought with us. We needed to dump the black and gray tanks, connect the jeep let alone drive home. It was a total fail, I had her drive the jeep home, alone I dumped the tanks and drove down the mountain and home. I had to use my left foot for the accelerator and brakes, that was an eerie experience doing all the switchbacks down but I made it safe but not too sound. She still refuses to drive the RV, but she did throw away all my flipflops.

@@BrokenDreamsReborn That happened in 2017, I was laid up for 2 months. After I got home, and then went to the hospital all they would do was put it in a splint and said no walking on it at all, told me I needed a steel plate on one side and a few screws on the opposite side, the problem was availability of operating room time so it was 8 days later when it was operated on. It’s well healed up now, but there are 12 screws that fasten the plate to the bone, when the weather is cold the screws transmit that cold into the bone, not painful but it causes an ache kind of like when you drink an icey on a hot day and you get a brain freeze. When it happens I have to stop and use my hands to warm it back up.

I'll share my story. I had back problems for more that 10 years, could not walk more than a few hundred feet or stand for more than 10 minutes. I saw many doctors and tried many treatmen plans, but all to no relief. Lastly I visited Cleveland Clinic in 2018, they said my issues was due to inflmation, and I could not take NSAIDS because of my kidney diease. In September 2019 I changed my diet to a low inflmatory ketogentic diet because of other health issues. In 3 months my back problem was gone, I considered it amazing, all of my other health issues went away also over a period of 6 months. Just know there may be a solution that your medical staff may not consider, there's no money in helping you by changing you diet. I can currently hike miles with out issue, last year we were in the same Campground, site #16. Wish you luck with your back!

@Life.After.Retirement Месяц назад

@@nancyjones6784 I built my own diet from a lot of research, but there is a shortcut, the closest diet I can recommend is the PHD diets from Dr. Ken Berry, just google him. He has videos for a spectrum of diets from Keto to Carnivore which he refers to as the Proper Human Diet. My diet was very close to what he proposes. Cut out inflamitory foods, like wheat and other grains, cut out High Omega 6 fats like vegatable oils, seed oils like conola, and use Saturated Fats, like bacon grease, lard, butter, talow. Eat all the things we were told was bad for us and cut out all the foods we are told is good for us. Dr Eric Westman at Duke is another source, but his diet is not antiinflamatory, just weight loss.

Great advice at the end. I sure hope this injury is temporary and heals quickly. Once you feel better, you might want to consider following a stretching video as part of your daily routine. There's a physical therapist who does stretching videos for scoliosis. (Can't remember the channel right now). These stretches helped my back pain quite a bit when I was doing them regularly. Also, consider finding a good chiropractor. I've been dealing with back pain since I fractured my spine as a teenager a few decades ago, and then being rear ended about ten years ago just about did me in. Stretching and the chiropractor have kept me mobile.

Back pain is awful. 20+ years ago I hurt back bending over and was told it was a herniated disk and had several injections over the years.

You can hurt your back (rupture a disk) by attempting to pick up a toothbrush. I bent over to get a sock out of the washer to put in the dryer and ruptured my disk. That caused immediate sciatic pain shooting down my left leg. I could not sit or stand without pain. After a week ended up with first of several surgeries. My neuro surgeon said when I have flare ups I use ice, anti inflammatory, pain meds and a muscle relaxer. If CBD none THC is legal they make a pain roll on that helps. They may have thought oral steroids because a lot of pain injections contain steroids.

@TheJTTaylor000 29 дней назад

I’m 54. At 17 I had my first back surgery for a herniated disk.(L5) I had some complications with the surgery. I got a staff infection that put back in the hospital for 11 days. At 20 I was working at a job I shouldn’t been working and reinsured the L5. So, I had another surgery. This time no problems. Over the next few years I had episodes with it that required epidermal steroid injections. I think it twice requiring 3 to 4 shots each time. All that happen before I was 25 or so. I learned that I had to have some kind of job that wasn’t all that physical. So I got into quality assurance type jobs. From then till now I’ve had tiny things happen. Nothing requiring surgery or shots. The one thing I’ve found (I wish I had one at 17 years old) that keeps my back in good shape is an inversion table. I currently have a Teeter table. The one with the commercial that has the 70 year old jumping up in the air. Before I purchased it I tried out any table I saw. There are many on the market. All but the Teeter were so uncomfortable on my ankles. Which is where you hang from. I couldn’t stay inverted more than 30 seconds. (If I was lucky) You get what you pay for. Some tables are cheap. The Teeter is pretty expensive. Brand new they are over $500. But, I found refurbished ones on eBay for $300. It works perfectly and other than a plastic scratch here and there it was brand new to me and well worth the savings. More important is it helps maintain a healthy back. I used at least every other day in the beginning. Now I use it once a week or if I do something to cause a tweak. Which I’ve found rarely happens now. I’ve used mine for 2 years now. I sure wish I would have gotten one when they first come on the market. I hang completely upside down in mine. But you work yourself up to that point. Anything past 90 degrees helps align the back. I understand that carrying it everywhere would be an issue for you in your travels. But I believe even with the 5th wheel attachment in the bed of the truck it would slide in right beside of it and fit so that the tailgate will close. I don’t know if this is your first episode with your back. If it’s not you understand that once you’ve tweaked it it’s a life long problem. If it’s your first episode reread my last statement. It will happen again. Especially living the lifestyle you are. I swear by mine. I’m not paid by teeter of course. I just like to inform fellow back injury suffers of what I’ve found. Good luck and safe travels.

Front of leg is L2-3 disc. It would be in your waist. Can’t straighten up was the same as mine. It was L2-3. See if you can get a MRI. I’m sorry this happened to you. Pay close attention to where this pain is. How do I know this? I have 14 herniated discs. First advice don’t get surgery because it weakens the spine. That is how I ended up with 14 herniated discs. I wish you all the best. It would be good for you to see a neuro surgeon. He can order the MRI and I would only let a neurologist surgeon read my scan. They know what they are doing. Try putting the lidocaine patch in the center of the spine where the pain is. The pain comes from a fluid that leaks out on the nerve endings. That fluid is like battery acid. This will take a while to dissipate but will get better with rest. I don’t know what you do about things you have to lift. I do not lift. I get someone to do it for me. Lifting can cause another disc to herniate and your pain levels will go off the chart.

Better than a chiropractor. Seems like to me that the campgrounds would make an exception and accommodate you for an extra week or so in case of an injury as long as they have space. I'd talk to them about it if (God forbid) there's a next time.
