When I play with them, I sit on the floor and keep my back straight as possible. It is so important that you do not bend, as you probably aready know! I use ice packs alot. That seems to be the key in keeping the inflammation down without constantly taking meds.
I commend you on your hope to find an adult rescue. Do not give up, there are tons out there to be rescued and many will meet your requirements.
Please keep us posted in your search....
Best wishes
PS: I declined the surgery as my chances for recovery were not very good, so I manage it with holistic treatments. So far.....so good! |
i definitely will, thanks for your feedback, it's very helpful!!! i hope your back feels better as well....
