George, I still recommend you see a manual spinal physical therapist. My Daughter does wonders for me. She specialized in the spine, a master's degree an 6 years of school. I pray you can recover an have peace a get back to riding which gives us all enjoyment.

Mitch,
I thank you for your advice, I live in a 3rd world state, North Carolina.  They have upgraded their Educational value, but it is difficult to find a competent Professional. The Chiropractor that is handling this  problem, I would rate better than most that I have had to deal with in my years of keeping my body operational.
There is just some things that happen in life that makes it hard to continue, being 70++.

Ride Safe,

George

To all the members following this thread, the good news is that I'm still living. BUT, the bad news is, unless some miracle happens, I will be wheel chair bound. I am already using a wheeled walker to try to strengthen my legs. The left legs is being stubborn.  My endurance to pain is getting shorter, and my ability to walk distance is almost nonexistent.

All Riders/Owners...BE SAFE

Well to make a long story short, The "Jetsons" haven't been riding since 2011. Many situations had come into the mix of life. Now the latest situation has put a real crimp on the future of riding.  The George and Judy riding team will have to put riding on hold again. George, a 72 year old, was hit with a "pinched nerve" in the lower back region that sent him to the emergency room at the hospital. This was approximately mid June. After loosing control of the right leg, and many visits to a Spine Doctor, which hasn't been fruitful, George is muddling through pain pills and working with various doctors and a Chiropractor to release the nerves from the pressure. ETA of a whole body again? Only time will tell. It damn near killed me. Lost over 16 pounds of muscle and flesh in two weeks.

So if you see us on the road again, I beat it. But I don't think the right leg will be the same due to damaged nerves.

Ride Safe everyone, and I hope this never happens to you.

George,

My father inlaw was hit with a very similiar situation.   He was able to have a tens unit put (implanted)  into his back and it has taken away the pain.   Don't know if this is a viable option for you, but hope you find relief or a fix.

George..  I hope the best for you and will send a quick request to the man upstairs that you are granted peace and joy no matter what new challenges you may face. 

My son is in boot camp and I sent him with the only piece of true wisdom that has stuck with me.  That is Attitude and Effort are the only things in this life that we truly control.  You exemplify this...  Sounds like you have a warriors heart.. 

Take Care..

MikeyTee,
I have already seen a lot of challenges. Mainly learning to get up off the floor without use of legs. These legs use to press 300 lbs., I'm lucky to get control enough for knee lock for standing. Still working on leg extension for both legs. I DO THANK YOU FOR YOUR ENCOURGEMENT.

TXGator,
That was a great piece of Wisdom that you gave your Son. And I appreciated the compliment. And you are so correct about Attitude and Effort. Now about that heart, when do they peaceably sleep?
This one is 72 yrs. and going for 73 in June.

Take Care as well
George

To all riders /owners,
Today I took a chance, and fired up the CUSE2 07. She sounded GREAT and felt Great. The left leg is a little more cooperative. I went through some really painful days lately as the nerves in left leg began "talking" to the central nerve center. There  is Hope yet. I Thank everyone for their Prayers well wishes.

Ride safe,

Vagabond

To all that had replied recently, I thank you for your support.
To make a long story short. The left leg is giving some support. I'm aiding it with a support knee wrap to get more control.
I'm walking more without the walker w/wheels. I'm using the adage "when the going get tough, the Tough get going" w/attitude.
PAINFUL? Nawwww.

Ride safe everyone,
George (Vagabond6542)
