Had another round of six injections in my low back today. The plan is to locate the pain so the doctors can perform a few nerve ablations. Thought I’d share some pics of times I was in considerably less pain. First pic doesn’t fall under the “less pain” category…it’s the hardware that was installed in 1993 at L1 & L2 due to a L2 compression fracture. The scar is 12” long. L2 was fused together and fused to L1. The hardware was removed in 1995 due to it almost tearing through my skin. The rest are past and current gear. It’s been hard to see all the gear I have sitting while the doctors are working on reducing the chronic pain; but I remain positive because the doctors are helping me. It will always be a struggle fighting the chronic pain in my neck, hands, back, hips, and left ankle, but my passion for music will never go away. #chronicpain #pearlmastercustom #pearlexport #pearlvision #knockoutbeaters #roland #ludwigvistalite #splstreetbop #dw9000 #tamafirstchair #evansdrumheads #istanbulmehmetcymbals #techradrumsticks #promarksticks #aheaddrumsticks #cherryhilldrums #woshipdrummer #beardeddrummer #inkeddrummer #pierceddrummer #iamtheghostdrummer https://www.instagram.com/p/CYVVHnqL4he/?utm_medium=tumblr
