Disability, Chronic pain, illness Forum

A car accident damaged my back so that within a year, two vertebraes, L 4 and L 5, were forming a V toward my spine; Doctors said eventually they would hit the spine causing serious pain; I had pain each day and found sitting in a chair on on a bed or other, serious pain set in. Then, I found if I slouched, like our mother's always told us not to, the pain would not happen;; so I changed how and where I sat for more than five minutes; no more chairs unless I slouched in it. I moved a day bed into living room so I could slouch against the wall or lie down to watch television or to write. I kept my body in a slouch position at the computer by buying a laptop. I lay down when watching television. No I never received any compensation from the accident, but now I don't have the pain and believe the V formation is less that it would have been. I learned in high school in 1953 to trust the wisdom of your body to tell and teach you how to deal with pain and other condition. It has worked miracles for me. ANN
