I am 52 years old, i have a heart condition, arthritis, am a diabetic, and have a cripling spinal condition. I take approx 40 tablets a day for my conditions. I cannot exersise due to my disabilites. The thing is i am a vegetarian, i dont eat sweets etc but i am overweight. The last few months i have started to lose weight, i am not on a diet, it started to come off at around a few kilo’s every month, but now it is at 2-4 kilo’s per week. I am heavy at 24 stone, and 6 ft 2 inches high. I know i am fat, but this weight loss is increasing, my clothes are falling off me now, my legs are like pins ! the flesh is starting to sag in all the wrong places. The worry is that it is coming off too quick, i am not dieting, i feel terrible with my illnesses anyway, but i now cant sleep, have very high rate of angina, i have no strength, it is worrying me. I have just had a lovelly xmas, ate all the wrong things loads of sweet stuff, cakes, deserts, loads of beer and wine and have now lost a further 6 kilos in the last week, have also picked up a terrible ailment called "shingles" on my back, basically life is worring me now, does anyone have any idea what is going on with me?. I have been to the doctor, but they are only concerned about the hiogh level of angina, they dont see my worry about the rapid weight loss and constant feeling of extreme unwellness(if there is such a word)

Educational video describing the sacroiliac joint as a source of low back pain. Due to the proximity of the sacroiliac joint to the hip and the spine, pain of SI joint origin may be attributed to a hip or spine condition rather than the sacroiliac joint itself. SI joint pain is an unappreciated problem causing low back pain . Clinical and radiological evaluation is not usually reliable. The only reliable method for diagnosing SI joint pain is by injection.

So apparently, I have arthritis in my lower back. A spinal disc (L5 disc) in my lower spine is deteriorating, so everything is super compressed. On top of that, I also have osteophytes, which means that the edges around the lower spinal bones are abnormally sharp. This equates to major nerve pinching, which cases a lot of pain and pain running up and down my legs. The doctor suggested I do 3 things: 1. Start swimming 2. Sleep on a hard surface 3. Stop lifting heavy weights We’ll see how everything goes :) Epic Links *** Jon’s Main Channel www.youtube.com Jon’s Twitter! www.twitter.com Jon’s Website www.techwaffle.net
