The compression fractures happened 5 or 6 years ago when I was snowmaching in a ravine. I took a really hard it; flew over the handlebars and all. Next day my back was killing me. After it didn't go away for a few weeks I went to the doc. He ordered an xray and said I had two compression fractures.
As for the hernia itself-and I swear by this- I bent over at the waist to get a coke from a vending machine---no joke. I felt a hard pop, and for a moment, the pain literally paralyzed me. I didn't move for a few moments, and even then only slowly. My mother is a RN of 13 years, so I called her, and she said she was sure it was a hernia.
What's wierd is that whenever I sit or stand still, my back kills me (and not to be too graphic, but my left testicle-only the left one-feels like someone just flicked it really hard). But anytime I'm moving or actually doing something, it's totally fine. In Air Assault, I did all the rappels, and even the 12-miler comfortably with no pain or problems whatsoever.
Maybe I'm just allergic to being lazy?
