I'm guessing your tax runs out end of Dec then Gary, although it is still a bit early to send out a reminder, unless they think people will forget in the chaos of most folk's Chrimbo.

Got the next steps on my back problem: vertebroplasty to strengthen the compromised vertebra, then surgery to ablate the areas that are rubbing on the sciatic nerves and causing the pain, then a couple of plates / rods to keep everything stable.
Good job it's winter as it'll mean no biking for at least 2 months. |

That sounds quite intensive. What was the underlying cause a previous injury or age related?

A secondary tumour on the vertebra, which has been growing since late last year. Had two sessions of radiotherapy on it to shrink it (which helped a lot) but with the most recent pain flare, the consultants reckon that it could be getting unstable and at risk of collapsing, which would be bad. So the aim is to intervene early and stabilise things as much as possible.

At least I'm not missing good biking weather, as I'm likely to be out of the saddle well into the new year

Wow Craig, that all sounds pretty serious. Let's hope they get this sorted pretty pronto. As you say, ideal time of the year to deal with it, and you should be ready to get back in the saddle in time for the new season.
