I would absolutely love a synthetic spine. I'm 36 and my back is just miserable.

It would be one thing if it consistently got relief from something, but it's a constant shell game. Will heat help today? Will ibuprofen work this afternoon? Is PT going to help this time or make me feel terrible?

It's just a terrible process to go through and makes me want to go around telling everyone to sit up straight, stand more and do core exercises.

Real talk, have you gotten any scans? I had a herniated disc and got a microdiscectomy. Changed my life and it was like 6 weeks recovery.

I got the same surgery and it came back after six months. The difference right after the surgery was massive though.
