I started work again, and had been working for 1½ weeks, and bang my back went again, went to the quacks and now waiting to see a specialist. I will have to have another op, take a chance, been on pain killers 10 a day for years as I have a trapped nerve going down to my big toe, some days very painful, as it feels like someone in hitting your big toenail. Now my hips and spine are very painful, sitting down and getting up is a job and a half. On the brighter side, might give me a chance to come over to England more, and if I am on the sick list for a stretch of time, there’s always a hobby or two to keep me occupied. Happy days are here again
Sounds more like painful days are here again Stumpy, I get trapped nerves now and again which as you say are darn painful, when I get them which is not that often I am laid up for about 3 days every move sends pain shooting up my spine not nice, glad I don't get this to often myself. 
I have to admire your ability to find the upside to a down side Stumpy ! I wish you luck with the doctors and finding relief. More of you here is of course our gain. Looking forward to seeing more of you around here !
