Yes it is......and the pain medication and addiction to it is normal...and
can be deadly.....and it has effects on rational thinking etc...had several
co workers at GSU in the Western Division go through that...one, N5VBX, had
a plate screwed into his spine and rib cage in 6 places...(maybe more)..to
get rid of back pain..it didn't..at the same time they fused a couple of
disks together...now he is stuck with all that in him and it didn't make it
better...at times it got worse.....then he got hooked on the pain meds...and
became intolerable to his wife and family....later became a blithering blob
of what was left of his humanity...and now lives in the basement of his
sister's house in Dallas slowly passing time before he dies..his wife,
Renee, could not take the pain meds and the sideeffects...divorced Bob and
remarried a few years later..His two daughters and adopted son wont see him
because of what he became...

IOW, be MINDFUL of the meds......they CAN change a person....the pain means
you are still alive....and thinking...
The meds can make it go away but will make people go away as well and make
YOU want to become a hermit (HHHMMMM).....because YOU will change and become
something YOU wouldn't want to be around (much like a diabetic in the last
stages...they go through similar changes...been there, seen it happen with
family members, etc)..keep that in mind.

  Hi Earl,

  No I have not done it yet, I spent saturday at my house in miss 
cutting the grass with my John Deer & picking up limbs & sticks & roots 
& small stumps, MY body hurts so Much now I cant even stand UP !  the 
screws they PUT in my legs and ankles wear through the skin and start 
bleeding
  I would love to know if thats Normal but I don't know anyone that has 
been rebuilt like they rebuilt me. so I have no guidelines.

  After the DX/PEDITION is over at the end of the month,.....Ill start 
tearing down my Station & moving it to miss. It will take time I am sure 
BUT in the end it will be worth it. ( NO NEIGHBORS for 5 MILES !)

  just me and the boys & the DEER,........... WOW !

                                                    Joey
