I'm looking for some new ideas on how to deal with my lower
back problems.  I have very little space between the lower
discs.  It used to be only occasional times of discomfort,
but now its quite a regular occurence.  I can expect prob-
lems from weather, sitting too long, bending too much, any-
thing at all sets it off.

Anybody have any ideas on new surgeries that are not too 
debilitating?  I heard about a surgery where they put a 
spacer in between the discs, and would like to know more
about this.  

I would like to get some input on things that people have
done to overcome problems of this nature.  I do all the 
proper excersizes, and walk a lot and take ibopropen and
pray a lot.

I really do not want surgery, because I would have to 
take too much time off work, and I don't want to do that.
There must be some other things that are working for people,
and if you know some, let me know.

Thanks in advance for your advice. Please e-mail your response.
