I'm now a believer in acupuncture. Yup, but the treatments don't last more than a few years. What the hech, you're just being jabbed with dozens of long, long needles by someone who can't drive. ;) :lol: :lol: Nice. Before I die, I want to see a 50 yr old female Asian NASCAR driver. Keep in mind, I...

I'm really fucking sorry to hear that.

I don't know if I would have had the same experience with a group of people I knew. That's a concern I have with the trip I'm planning this year. I "knew" I was going to be at burningman in 2010 about 15 minutes after visiting the website. The planning leads to excitement, which I share with my fri...

Chondroiten/Glucosamine huh? I'm definitely going to try that.

My injury was muscular in nature, but the sciatica it caused was so bad I was throwing up this time.

I'm now a believer in acupuncture.

Morning!

The pain in my back is finally subsiding after a week. It's amazing how much energy it sapped out of me.

Cheers!

That was great Dave.

less pain today.

thanks for asking.

My fucked up back is doing better today after acupuncture yesterday and a lidocaine patch today. I may actually be able to get a full day's work done.

wish me luck.

Seems like honest motivation. And although I haven't attended yet, one of the tenets is 'radical self expression'. I interpret that as everyone celebrating exactly who they are - nothing more and nothing less. Other main principles are 'radical self reliance' and 'leave no trace'. That's exactly how...

Hey DOOM. Welcome. I'm new here too. The snark you see isn't folks being mean. It's just internet snark. You'll start to see through it after a little while on the boards. I myself, like snark, so it's easy to see. I'll feed the discussion a bit. I have a boss who's a Burning Man Ranger of many year...

Thanks for the fucking suggestions. You people fucking are awesome.

Fuck my back hurts!

I sure wish everyone that's told me 'you're too young to have this kind of trouble' was right. They are not.

Anyone tried acupuncture for chronic back muscle strains/pulls? The chiropractor doesn't seem to be helping.

back still hurts.

this shit sucks.

I don't have a good idea abour a particular company, but you might look into shipping companies with a pod-type thing. That might be cost prohibitive though.

I don't dream at night about it, but I walk by my playa gear (just stored the ancient motorhome I use just for the playa) every day. Many times I will just stop to consider, what do I need next year? Or, that really worked well. I dream wide awake. I remember them better. I like how you said this. ...

requires good ice chest and perhaps some dry ice, but:

Make yourself a batch of jambalaya, curry or other rice dishes, and freeze solid in good quality freezer bags. Let defrost on the playa, boil the bag in water for a few minutes and you have yourself a fantastic meal.
