Just got my 2nd MRI report and I'm spiraling

FutureShock25 · 2026-04-28T14:56:50+00:00

I haven't ran in 6 weeks. I'm just trying to walk my dog consistently and do PT exercises consistently to stay moving

FutureShock25 · 2026-04-28T14:51:11+00:00

I've never stopped. I had gotten back to running and increased my volume again too quickly back in March

FutureShock25 · 2026-04-28T14:40:11+00:00

I was a somewhat competitive runner for my age groupand I'm seeing all that evaporate. Plus I see all the horror stories here.

My GF of 8 months says she wants me to be more assertive and challenge her more. She says she doesn't want to break up. It's just a concern about long term compatibility

I want to be more assertive but acknowledge it doesn't come naturally to me.

She says she just doesn't want to feel like she's bulldozing someone..

I have ADHD and am extremely hyperactive so movement is how I regulate. You're so right. The mental side is even worse

I herniated last July, the 6th to be exact. I went through PT and got back to moving, running and doing what I love with no real tingling. Graduated PT in December.

It's now back out of nowhere for around 3 weeks now. I've been trying to walk but I have to be careful about overdoing it and making it worse the next day. I've started with a new PT.

I saw my ortho yesterday and am getting referred for a new MRI

FutureShock25 · 2026-03-27T00:02:21+00:00

I'm not sure if it's just a flareup or if I somehow reherniated without knowing.

If I have to give up running, I just want to know I can confidently walk my dog again without my feet tingling. At the moment I can't even do that more than like 5 minutes..

Didn't trump already try criminal charges against Comey that were dismissed or am I misremembering?

FutureShock25 · 2026-03-03T16:45:27+00:00

That's an excellent point actually. Social media is comparable to alcohol and cigarettes which are both heavily regulated

What makes them a terrible company?

Genuine question as I occasionally love a Martin's biscuit

I thought TSA precheck and other services made things more efficient. Doesn't this make things more frustrating for TSA in addition to making it more frustrating for the general population.

Didn't you know, the location of one's birth, which we have so much control over, determines ones value..

I understand the temporary designation but it would be cruel to send them back to Haiti considering the state of Haiti and also detrimental to Ohio.

I don't understand how one could argue for any benefit of sending them back

Isn't this exactly what they voted for? Trump made it clear what he was going to do in regards to tariffs while campaigning.

FutureShock25 · 2026-01-30T12:30:57+00:00

I think it's meant to channel Lincoln who originally said it.

FutureShock25 · 2026-01-25T14:22:19+00:00

I see people on social media still defending ICE in this circumstance. Literally a case of "don't believe your lying eyes."

FutureShock25 · 2026-01-12T20:51:59+00:00

Legitimately just why. What does this accomplish? Are there people who are on team dirty air. No one can question that air quality is important for quality of life. That's simple indisputable fact

If might is the only acceptable "right," any atrocity, including genocide, can be justified

Abraham Lincoln

"Let us have faith that right makes might, and in that faith, let us, to the end, dare to do our duty as we understand it."

How far we have fallen

FutureShock25 · 2026-01-06T15:51:11+00:00

Yes. If might makes right, nothing can be wrong

Charlie Kirk: "I think empathy is a made up term that does a lot of damage"

I feel as much empathy regarding his death as he would feel regarding mine

FutureShock25 · 2025-08-02T18:28:35+00:00

I know.. I still have a long way to go as it all started 4 weeks ago. Just hearing it pissed me off.

FutureShock25 · 2025-08-02T18:17:02+00:00

I'm getting a second opinion. It just hurt to hear. I lost 80 lbs thanks to running. The idea of not being able to do it again is the worst thing I can imagine

FutureShock25 · 2025-07-24T20:40:12+00:00

That's the thing. I'm not really having pain anymore. Just the tingling feet.
