    thanks guys
    coffenup i hope the op goes well for you. I am quite lucky to have healed so quickly, although there is still a fair way to go as im still not meant to lift more than 5kg so still have loads of physio to work on.
    i did read that some new research has come out that a scientist has found that in cases of long term back pain where the body has healed its self and doctors cant find out where the pain is coming from, that the pain may be caused from a bacteria and a dose of antibiotics can cure the pain
    here is the article if any one is interested
    Could a virus have caused your back pain? (And will a simple dose of antibiotics cure it for good?) | Mail Online
