Evidently, I'm getting old

X-rays show more arthritis showing up in my joints, but nothing else.  I'm going to start straight up painkillers, for my other meds make me throw up, which is bad for a diabetic on shots.  

It may be that I am in for a long haul of my back always hurting, or that I strained muscles, and it will get better soon (or not so soon).  Pretty much what I thought before I went to the doctor's, but at least now I know for sure what I was pretty certain of before, that I did not have a spinal injury doing this to me.

You know the cat-and-cow stretch? That would be the first thing to start with.

Mooo-rrrOW OW OW! Trying it. Arching the back *UP* ain't bad. Low back to center bites. It's probably really good for me. I can get up from the floor by myself afterwards, which counts as an improvement.
