As if we're not bummed enough already, what with the constant battle with pain and loss of control of our lives after injury, our bodies add insult to injury and pile on extra pounds! I agree with Patrick and second the D'OH!, with Allan and second the "Being fat and feeling fat sucks." and with Mariaa and second the Bahhumbug!
I'm gonna go now and drown my sorry a*s (sorrow) in chocolate, yet again... ;-)

Years of pain, discectomy, research into anatomy, hardware, clinical trials, facilities, surgeons, techniques, insurance. Attempts at ProDisc, Activ-L trials. Now, low bone density. D'oh!!!
At 61 years, no longer qualifying for trials due to my age (chronological, not physical or mental).
2009 - Working on improving bone density or getting rich so I can go to Germany, where medicine and insurance have gone beyond the Stone Age.
