from Ukraine
Hey everyone,
Glad to see this place is still alive and kicking.
It's certainly been a while. Almost 5 years, in fact - according to the "recent posts".
Quite a few things have changed. Some for the better, some - not so much.
Had a question I figured out I could ask some of you, beautiful people.
Due to the kind of work I have been doing (combined with a fairly unhealthy lifestyle, in terms of the amount of movement and exercise I was getting per day - and the amount of strain I did put myself under, the few times that I did hit the gym) I seem to have developed a somewhat persistent case of inflammation in the rear, commonly referred to with a word, which starts with an H (how fateful).
Spelling it fully feels both embarrassing and slightly humiliating, given the kinds of results that I did manage to achieve before, so I'll spare you the trouble of having to read it in an explicitly laid out manner.
Just one thing I wanted to ask you guys, especially those who to deal with this sort of thing in the past: what kind of regimen would you recommend to get back into shape, taking into consideration this condition?
I paid the visit to a doctor already a few times, and he has advised me to refrain from any kind of exercise whatsoever, except for a bit of a quick walking. Prescribed me a few creams and whatnot, and although they seemed to be doing the trick at first, the thing just kept coming back. Needless to say, I've lost basically all the shape I used to have. And the next "medically prescribed" thing to do would be do a undergo a whole surgery, which could put an additional strain on my own savings, as well as kick me out of the loop in terms of work and other arrangements. The idea doesn't seem particularly appealing, as you can imagine.
Not asking for any medically approved answers, that would be silly and just plain wrong. I could definitely use a bit of a perspective from someone who had to deal with such a thing in the past. Is there any way I can get rid of this annoyance without any explicit medical involvement, perhaps by following one of DB's Foundation programs? Or would you advise to just go through the somewhat frustrating intervention and to get it over with as soon as it can possibly be done?
There's a possible challenge with the answer "yes" to that last question: we're still in the middle of an armed conflict here in Ukraine, and it might be hard to find the time, the place and the person who'd be willing to help me deal with this thing - surgically, I mean.
