As long as I can remember, I have been a pain in the ass. And most of the time my butt hurt too. I first went to a doctor in my twenties and he blamed my pain on morbid obesity. I lost 80 pounds and did feel better (surprise, surprise) but my butt still hurt. Over the years the pain would come and go and I would complain to my wife, doctor, chiropractor, and anyone else who would listen. Nothing I tried seemed to result in long-term relief and over the past few years the pain has gotten much worse.
In the spring of 2023, I decided to go to the doctor or maybe my wife threatened to leave me if I didn't go to the doctor...the details are a bit fuzzy. But after lots of drugs, tests, and months of physical therapy I am, dare I say it, mostly pain-free. I still stretch every day and am continuing to strengthen my back and hip, but I can drive, sit, sleep, and hike without experiencing debilitating pain.
Thank you to everyone who prayed for me and put up with me. Now that I have some relief from the pain in my ass, please feel free to point out when I am being one. I want to work on that too!
