Becky out of action for a while

[Ian]

@Becky has some back problems at the moment and is laid up, so will be out of action from the forums for a while (although hopefully she'll be able to pop in occasionally!). Fingers crossed it won't be too long before it improves, but in the meantime, I'll be around to help administer the forums in her place .

I am sorry to hear that @Ian it must be terribly frustrating for her now that it is planting time and the weather seems to be improving where you are. Please give her my best wishes for a speedy recovery.

Becky will be missed during her absence, and doubly appreciated when she returns. Please convey all our concern and good wishes to her.
(Ian, you're cute, but you're no Becky!).

Thanks everyone, I'll show her these posts tomorrow and I know it'll put a smile on here face .

I've got my fingers crossed for you too, LIcenter!

(Ian, you're cute, but you're no Becky!).

 

[LIcenter]

Thank you Ian. I feel like a jerk posting my problems in someone else's thread. My apologies.

 

[marlingardener]

LIcenter, don't feel like a jerk! First, I'm sorry you have to deal with Lyme disease flare ups--how terrible for you. Secondly, you were sympathetic to Becky's back problem and as an aside mentioned your difficulty. No apologies needed as far as I can see.
Someone who has experienced pain and who offers sympathy and good wishes to another speaks from experience, and the heart.
Here's hoping both you and Becky are 100% soon!

I'll second that!

 

[Becky]

Thanks for the kind wishes everyone! I'm on a lot of painkillers at the moment which seems to be really helping, but the only downside is that I feel like a zombie! Hopefully I'll still be able to check in most days but I might not be posting as much.

Sorry to hear that LIcenter, I hope you are feeling better soon

Hi, Becky. There is nothing worse than chronic back pain. Sadly the medicos have written mine off as incurable, so no more treatment. At least you can take pain killers, I cannot.
Hope it goes away for you and you can get back to normality as soon as possible.

 

[Becky]

Oh, that must be awful for you @Owdboggy My problems are degenerative discs, scoliosis and sciatica - I've had a couple of microdiscectomies in my lower back, and it looks like I'll need a fusion at some point. It would be pretty major stuff, but at least it should stop the problems I've been having. Given that I'm only 32 I'd like to get on with things rather than be laid up all the time!

 

[Owdboggy]

Well I can give you 40 years, nearly. Hope the treatment is a success.

 

[Beth_B]

Oh Becky, feel better soon! Hot baths with epsom salts (lavender scented ) will make you feel better too.

 

[Sheal]

Take it easy Becky, I wish you well and hope you're back on your feet soon.

 

[Tetters]

Becky, a good mate of mine has a similar list of those same problems, and I feel for you with sincerity. I do hope that you feel much better soon. Chin up.

 

[MaryMary]

Hope you both feel better soon.
