    Is it a disc problem?

    Can you lie on your stomach to help the disc go back into place?

    How about rising up onto your elbows (like a kid watching TV on her tummy on the floor) when lying on the stomach is easy?

    I'm gonna plug Robin McKenzie's book again. cuz I just can't help myself. I've seen too many successful disc management stories at this point. "Treat your own back" by Robin McKenzie. http://www.amazon.com/Treat-Your-Bac...9570151&sr=8-1

    You're my current hero, RM! I have a whiny back, too, and the first time it gave out on me, I couldn't do anything but lie flat for several hours. Even that hurt. I can't imagine having gotten on a bike or even standing up for very long.

    Knot, I'm going to check out that book right now.
