We're sitting out on the deck, but it's in the shade with the ceiling fan and a breeze, so not too bad. A/C is on in the house though. That's where Ruthie likes to stay.Anderson is 88* . . . . . . and I'm staying in the A/C
4 lbs. seems like a lot to be low. Did they look for a leak?Dang, A/C didn’t feel rite. Called to have it serviced, 4 lbs of coolant low. @ 100.00 $ a lb. +85.00 hr. service charge.
Yep, put in a tube of stop leak. Said it only reacts when in contact with air. He figured the same as you. (Leak).4 lbs. seems like a lot to be low. Did they look for a leak?

i was diagnosed with a L4-5 herniated disc from the MRI in December.Did you ever end up getting the MRI results and follow up?
Howdy Expat. I hope that doc will do something to fix you up!i was diagnosed with a L4-5 herniated disc from the MRI in December.
I have had two events since then. The second one was bad, some pain and numbness in hip, leg and foot but it only lasted 4-5 days. This current one is as bad as the first. Coming up on 4 weeks. Unable to stand for very long before my leg and hip start hurting really bad. At night my hip, leg and foot hurt enough to wake me. I am on all the pain meds and anti inflammatories that I was before. I see that doc on 6/6.

NeurosurgeonAre you seeing a specialist or pain management on the 6th?
I really don’t know. I think as long as I improve in between he seems satisfied.Is surgery in your future?
Years ago, my grandfather had crushed discs and couldn't walk. He had surgery and was down for several weeks, but after healing, he was better than new. He was able to get around as good as me. I was 23 at the time.
The problem is, it won't improve without intervention. It will keep coming back.I really don’t know. I think as long as I improve in between he seems satisfied.
I agree with Lpherr. Herniated discs don't become "unherniated" as far as I know.I really don’t know. I think as long as I improve in between he seems satisfied.
They will heal, but it can take a while, like a couple months. They usually give me a steroid injection to help take the swelling down and takes the pressure off of the nerves. I'm scheduled for one next Friday actually.I agree with Lpherr. Herniated discs don't become "unherniated" as far as I know.
