Well hello again all!

Im going for a meal this evening with Hubby...we havent been out for a meal on our own together in such a long time that its quite exciting!! The only problem is that we are going to an indian restaurant. I have decided that Im going to have a flexi syn evening and enjoy myself.

Anyway, will report back tomorrow!

I told her that I didnt know...had a car accident in 2000, but just had phyiso, epidural 2005, but that was all. She is now going to look into it, as it could be the cause of my back pain...what I want to know is: what is it and whats it still doing in my back??????
