Pain free now days.

However, I had a back operation a number of years ago on a prolapsed disk (C5). Prior to that I was in extreme pain where nothing, not even opiates had any effect. They discovered during the operation I had multiple nerves, so twice the pain.

Everything is OK now but I have to be careful with my back and use a special (made to measure and very expensive) chair when I'm at the computer which is about 12/16 hours a day.
