What beer are you drinking now? #4661

Waldos +Za - Cheers!!

 

I had self diagnosed sciatica in December. Only one other time did I suffer greater pain, dulled in part via morphine in one my one hospital inpatient visit since birth. Started curing the sciatica because I was on hold for two hours with BCBS ILL, and found online on hold walking it off, regardless of pain level, was the best cure. So as usual, never saw a doctor and symptoms gradually went away after a few weeks. Was too painful to bend slightly to put on pants for two days which led to the call. Now facing not having affordable health insurance, which is about as good as my current ACA plan, until reaching 65 between 2027 through the end of May 2034. A plus will be I won’t need to wait on hold for two hours anymore. What a country.

I’ll carry on with my one beer and zero pils a day regimen that got me this far, this bottle one in twelve secured for $5 plus tax, because annual Chicago shelf turd.

It sucks just a mysteriously as it came for me, it left a few months later. My back is still hosed, but that is another story

 

Sciatica has been put at bay for me by stretching to open up the pelvic area where the nerve routes through. It may not work for you two, but it has been transformative for me.

 

Wow. Mine flared up yesterday - like every step is painful and those sharp flare-ups. I'm sure you know the feeling. I never take Tylenol only Aleve - seems to work better and alot less liver interaction. Feel better my friend

 

Hi there BAs. Flowing through the week. Here's a new-2-me brew. I took 6 to Green Bay. I know @GrumpyGas likes it. I think I may have opened 1 can to share around but I'm glad there's a full one for me to rate 'n review. Talking Waters Stoney Run Pale Ale
It's excellent.
Cheers!

 

Thanks for the advice. I am doing a few things short and long term to mitigate both that issue, and also a back issue which popped up a few times over the past dozen years which resulted in the end of my football (American) playing days in the cops & firemen league. Helps having experience with both, to learn what to do / avoid as best as possible, but also sadly realize things will only get worse with age.

Still need to exercise more, and eat better, but have improved both since my working days. The lower beer consumption to mostly one a day unless out at a brewery or bar (and then 2-3 vs. the four to several I previously enjoyed) has helped with the weight, and hopefully my liver / other organs. Had to laugh at my 2/3 filled ibuprofen that expired per the bottle a decade earlier (I rarely take anything) after the sciatica attack, but it seemed to work. Still need to replace it, versus my diligence with fresh food and expiring condiments.

Best wishes for you and your pain management, and also for your Better Half and Child.

 

They should make a batch for me called Stoner Run

 

Heat advisory today - mid - 90's - I am tired of this summer!

Recycled pic but I had to grab a Jai Alai to toast the legend Hulk Hogan who passed away today at his Home in Clearwater FL. RIP Hulkster, you are a true legend.

 

Nice enough to enjoy a deck beer after mowing daughter's yard. Revolution Fist City Pale Ale. Cheers!

 

I'd like a large can of beer please?!
Oh. Yes! That'll be just dandy. Birches Citra IPA. I'll give it like 3.5 or so. I don't hate it, and it's straightening out my head.
Located in Long Lake, where the lake is slightly long and from the patio and some of the indoor seating you can watch folks boating, skiing, and tubing in the summer. A little pricey but well worth it.
cheers!

Proclamation Our-Give-A-F*cks-Are-On-Vacation Impy coffee stout (appropriate vacation beer)

 

Round 2 from this tin. Slightly off style but earns points for being tasty on it's own. F the style on occasion and enjoy the love in the glass.
Cheers!

 

Upside dawn athletic with egg,onion and mixed pepper sandwich. Tossed the hot peppers into a hot pan,plume of smoke came up which I inhaled.then I heard POP but was stupid and dint look away and got sauteed hot pepper in the eye.made the next 10 minutes pretty painful. Should have known,I only pretend I'm smart which becomes more obvious everyday
