My Spine

I probably am one of those guys who likes to travel,but can't!Not for lack of resources or otherwise.My upper spine simply dosen't allow me to!Orthopaedic surgeons(bone specialists) did CT and MRI scans on my spine and said that the disc between D8 and D9 vertebra has simply degenerated and in it's place there exists a nitrogen bubble.I live in the southern part of India and DR.SAJAN HEGDE,the premier spine surgeon(Apollo Hospitals,Chennai) ruled out surgery.As a result my upper back muscles have become weak and even when i walk one furlong i get upper back spasms.My heart's been tested and it's o.k.I've been advised back strengthening exercises and am wearing a Taylor-Knight Brace.Any further suggestions would be most welcome!

BROTHEL BILLS AND THE DUTCH BANK

The Dutch bank yesterday in a memo to it's employees informed them that it is "NO LONGER"going to reimburse the brothel bills submitted by their employees on their trips overseas,and that they have pay for the fun on their own!I appreciate the bank for their candid admission that the practice was paid for,for so long and possibly the girls (or Guys for that matter )have raised their rates much above the bank's capability,and hence the memo!Hey!check what your banks are allowing,because the're possibly having a ball at your expense.So long!
