I go to a specialist every 6 months and get a xray about once every 2 years. Been like that since 8th grade, so it's ok. We got social healthcare here, so that is not a problem to get it look at.

I try not to take the pills, because its really not healthy, but its small cracks in the disks in my back, and sometime it leads to small sweallings that pushes on the nerves.

Thankfully it only happens once or twice a year, because I cant do anything when it happens, and I am glad that I dont get addicted to the medicin, because I really dont feel good when im on them.

I hope you get better so you dont need that crap
