Title: thnx etc....
Post by: Grimnar on March 14, 2004, 06:22:37 PM
First i want to say this will be not a happy post.

Once again in my life there is something going on that doesn't make me happy at all.
When i was in cigs i already had some probs with my health but now it is going bad.

I'm currently typing this while i don't feel a thing. That is because i had some pain killers to stop the pain that i feel.

Second of all.

I want to thank you all for the fun games etc.
Now don't think that i'm leaving because i am not leaving (yet)
I make this post because it isn't sure what is going on with me.
So if it goes wrong then this thread is there already. And if everything is going k then i will reply that with a happy smilie ;)

I dunno what to say aout what i have because we don't know what it is or how or why it is going on. The only thing i can say is that is my back with great pain shocks. I never had something like this before and if it is going to continue then i'll go to the hospital. We are very scared about what is going on with me so that is why i make this thread because dMw is a part of my live and you all should know what is going on with your members (friends) even about this Dutch guy.

I hope to make a reply here soon (a good one) If i can't do it then one of my parents will do it with the info about what is going on with me.
But i will not think about that i am hoping and thinking about a good thing that everythings comes k. But how things look now it isn't going that way. But we will never give up ;)

So again thnx for everything and hope to continue this after some days.

So go on and kill some people on the server with a happy face about Ice isn't going to kill me i can win now :narnar:  (i still  have some humor :P )

I was away from our servers for quite a few weeks with back pain - agonising pain in the spine and shoulders which would move around and hit different areas at different times. If I sat still for a while I would be in tears when I finally tried to move the pain would be so severe in my lower spine. I went to a physiotherapist (coz doctors know sod all about backs) and she referred me to a specialist that she knew. She said he was a complete genious at this sort of thing and she could guarantee that he would fix me up.

Anyway, I went for the first visit and if she had told me what it was going to be like before I went then I wouldn't have gone. It was far too much like incense and joss sticks for my liking (not that he used incense or joss sticks it was just that the whole thing was very transcendental). I braved it through the first visit; he did the usual question and answer session to find out a bit about me, and then I lay on the treatment couch and he sat at the head of the table, put his hands under my head, and sat there for 20 minutes (I kid you not). When he finished I was in just as much agony as I was when he started and he actually had to help me get up off the treatment couch because I couldn't move. £35 later and I left swearing that I would not be back to the quack!

Now here's the funny bit... next morning I had negligible pain in my back and could move freely!!! Go figure!  I have been back for several sessions and it is getting better all the time.

Menno, If you want to read up on this stuff it is called "CranialSacro Therapy". Here is a link to the UK site (http://www.craniosacral.co.uk/).

I truly hope that it will be of some use to you - it is helping me tremendously - I still have bad days but they are getting fewer - all the Docs could suggest was Diazepam (a tranquilizer with addictive tendencies) or operations (which are notoriously unsuccesful) and I didn't fancy either of those options. The important thing to remember is that you can and will get better - you just have to find what works for you.

My wife works in a Physio department and she says that several of the Physios that work there visit this guy when they have problems. He has even cured one of them from having Migraines!

Hang in there and all my best wishes from one who has been there.

Well i have to wait untill this day ends to see if it goes over by it self or if i really need to visit a doctor.

I have some good luck that i have some good parents that knw what they are doing to me.  Normally i know what to do but this time i didn't so i called my parents that they have to come home as quickly as possible because things wern't going very well. And my 2 sisters didn't knew what to do.

My dad did something to my back (dunno how to say that in english) and after that things started to feel better. I had 2 pain killers and 1 other thing.

Things started to go well (because i didn't felt much)
After an hour or 2 sleeping everything felt a bit k. I still had and have the pain.
But i could move and sit again without dropping down because of the pain. Now things are starting to get a bit worse again.
But i'll see what happens.

I hope that i can do some work tomorrow but that will be hoping. It doesn't see and feel that i'm going anywhere for a few days.

But i am doing stuff what i may not do (like typing this message) i have to rest etc. But i need to do something because it is so boring doing nothing and i feel so unsure because my family needs to do most things for me and i don't like that i don't like it that they see me the way i'm now. I want to take care of my self but i just can't number 2 in the family :(

And for peter. This time it is not RSI i don't have probs with my arms.
(Het is alleen mijn rug en erge hoofdpijn)

I'm going to take a good rest again because the pain is comming up again and i hope to feel a bit better tomorrow and i will post a message tomorrow again with how things are going on that time.

BB, we have a few of those guys up here aswell. I went to see one a while ago aswell. The dude was a bit weird. By moving your hand above your knee or so he could just lock it or just make sure you can't move it. I was like, wow weird but it did help (I got a kick once on the knee, like a karatekick). Now it's okay although it gets anoyed from time to time.

Good suggestion. Haven't thought of that in a while.

By the way Menno I can strongly advise that sitting at a PC is not good for your back when it is like this. Suggest going for walks and avoiding PC for a while - I know it is a bummer but if it helps it heal faster ;)
Title: thnx etc....
Post by: Grimnar on March 14, 2004, 09:10:38 PM
walking makes it only worse.

I am behind the pc only for 5 a 10 min.

Then it is back to bed or going downstairs so that if something happens my parents can react quickly.

But most of the time i'm in my bed listening to music to kill the time.

But walking and sitting a time is not good that makes the pain only worse a bit strange but it is the way it is at this moment.

And now i'm off to bed to get a good night sleep (i hope)

and i will see how things are going.

(for the people who think you go to bed this early it is 22:06 over here :blink: )

Hope to see you all soon and with a good health etc ;)

All the best fella, see you back on the servers soon, and when you get better send any spare painkillers my way. (And you BB, Diazepam is great ;) )

Get well Ice, BBs suggestions is a good one, I know people who have tried that particular therapy, it's sort of like Reiki I believe, my wife recovered quickly from a bad knee injury after getting such a treatment.

i was about to say that it sounded a bit like raki

does it hurt to be touched on your back????

if it doesnt or isnt to bad the try and track down a bowen technique theripist [also called bowtec]
http://www.bowtech.com/ (http://www.bowtech.com/)

i had some of this and it  really fixed me up, not just my back but all of me, this stuff is absoloutly amazing if you feel up for it go for a consaltation and try it.

hope u get better soon

Not sure if you were asking Menno or me so in case it's me here is an answer :)

No it doesn't hurt. That is the weird thing about it. The guy barely touches you at all yet it works - weird!   :blink:

Post by: FBG on March 15, 2004, 12:24:24 PM
have you seen a doctore or been recommend to s specialist. Also i can say for sure that staying in bed isnt necessarily the best option either. Although it can hurt being active in a proper way is something you have to bare.

I have found that i sometimes get problems sitting at my computer, mostly because i climb a lot and then sit down in front of computer all the time. A lot of stress and bad posture.  I've experienced seering pain through my back.

anyway i hope you get it all sorted, Definately worth investing in a proper computer chair.

Post by: Grimnar on March 15, 2004, 02:37:36 PM
It is not because of the pc or something like that.

I already have a bad back. And that can not be changed.

I'm now at my work. And things are going fine for so far you can call them fine.

I still have some pain in my back but not so bad that i can't do a thing.
I think it is because we had a family trip last saturday and we did a thing that is bad for me. I dunno if there is a english word for it (klootschieten) Because i'm 1.95 m high i can't do much on the ground level and that is what i had to do saturday.

So far that is the only reason that i can have because for my back.

If things are going on like yesterday then it is going to the doctor.

But i already gave me up for the match tonight so see you all on the server tonight.

And if i know more then i will say it to you all.

Some good news.

At lest i hope so.

I was working today and gues what it went wrong on one moment.
I had to do something what i said if it stays that way i can do it but it didn't stayed that way i had to do more and that went wrong.
So i stayed untill it was time and i already informed my parents about it. And they send me to the doctor :blink:  (that is for me help help)

Because last time i was by the doctor he said some terrible things what never happend etc....

But now he said that is nothing serieus.
I only have to take it easy and need some rest.
But i may play cs.

And if it doesn't stop after some days i have to come back and then i'll be send to the hospital for more research about what is wrong but for now i may do everything again but i need to take it easy...

So see you all on the server and take it easy against me :narnar:

My ex is a qualified bowen practioner and its is an amazing treatment. A better website for therapists is www.bter.org (http://www.bter.org). It works wonders for a large range of problems.

A little update for you all <_<


I have still probs with my back but it is going better :blink:

Most of the time i get probs at the end of the day.
But i'm taking it easy as well at work or at home.

Most of the time other people do the heavy stuff for me. Somethings not because they can't do that work but that isn't a big problem.
I may work as fast as i think is k.
So with building a pc i will put it together in 1 hour (i did it in 30 min first) so i'm taking it very easy :o

Also at home i'm doing things very easy.
My parents don't ask me to do some things but they ask my 2 sisters to do it. But i have to do the stuff they can't do or handle <_<

Also i don't take any painkillers anymore so that is also a good thing.

So things are starting to look k for me again.

So now you guys are up to date about my health status  :whistle:  :narnar:

an update again.

I'm getting a special treatment for my back this weekend :blink: That all because last night it went wrong again.
I had my dart matches again and it went all well but after 3 from the 7 matches i got some pain again. So i took some rest for some time and after that i played the rest of my matches. After playing darts me and my parents decided to do some special treatment to my back.
So for now i'm hoping that it will work.

So i'll reply again in this thread on monday how it went ;)

But i'm still playing cs and doing my normal stuff so nothing special.


See you all on the server ;)
