I was 185 and ripped when my daughter was born 15 years ago. Spent at least five days a week at the Y. We have a gym membership, I'm going to have to start using it.
I see my back doctor in a week or so, I'm going to ask if she can get me to PT to find some exercises for my back, then when I see my neurologist I'm going to see if he's got any ideas about how I can work out with having to be carried home on a stretcher.
I fear it's going to require more drugs and I'm not real keen on that. But I can't do any repetitive motions without my muscles staying stuck. If I can just get some good work in on my back, that should help dramatically. And it should take a few more pounds off and make me feel better, I figure.
