Dr. visit

It seems the pain in my back is because it's broke! No Wonder! Duh..... It is T-8 if you know where that is. I do now! Actually, she said they think it is an old break! Just like the heart damage they found was an old heart attack. How does that happen?! The lower back hurts due to the arthritis.
She seemed more concerned about the cough that I've had to long. She wants it gone in a week and gave me an inhaler toward that end. She showed me the x-rays and the lungs look slightly fibery.........she thinks may be very early emphasema...........due to 26 years of smoking. I did quit some 15 years ago but smoked long enough to do some damage I guess.
I feel great for the shape I'm in!!
