    Going to be on there case tomorrow when I call. I can barley even walk now and can move my left toes any longer. Getting a little scary now. Keep you all posted.

    The trailer sounds good HarleysLR, as long as they pull good and carry what you need its good. Many times I wished I didn't have the trailer with me on the trip but it did what I needed it to do.

    The pain was so intense at 4 AM this morning the wife packed me up and took me to the ER room. Yep, its gotten worse. They upped my pain meds but now have a direct referral from the ER doctor to the spin dept. They will be getting a hold of me sometime this week. :rolleyes:

    Can't put any weight on the left leg any longer. Doc said no riding, driving or walking. Good thing I can still lay down cause that's where I'm headed now.

    A surfer friend of mine in California had a ruptered disc and had the operation. He was doing great, but one day he went out surfing before he was completely healed up . . . and you guessed it, he landed back in the hospital and had to have another operation. He was never right after that. He can't surf anymore and is on permanent disability. So, if you go the surgery route, make sure you heal completely before doing anything strenuous.

    FLHT if'n ya will bring me that bike, I will keep gas in it, keep it washed and waxed and in good runnin order so you don't hurt yerself while yer playing with yer back.
    I will keep it in a garage right next to mine. I got good home owners insurance on the garage too.
    You just need to keep insurance on the bike.
    All this at no charge to you buddy.

    Heck you'll probably end up with a T-MAx on it and he'll
    ride it through the programming learning mode LOL

    Good luck, DR's have a lot of good technology today
    so they'll figure it out, get you straightened out.

    Hang in there and don't let the ugly nurses
    near you!
