And you're a doctor so you know this for a fact huh?

No, but I did give up playing golf three to four times a week and sking 30 to 40 days a year because of a very bad back, and after having major surgery and months of physical therapy, I'm able to live a relatively normal life, without the need to illegally take controlled drugs to alleviate back pain.

Well, you see you shouldn't have been playing golf and skiing. if it wasn't for your selfish desire to have fun you would never have had a back problem to begin with.

That's all well and good but unless you also stayed in a Holiday Inn Express last night I'm not going to consider you an expert on the subject.

You are lucky that the back surgery and therapy worked.

Others are not so lucky.
