I've been struggling with back issues for the past 18 years. First I broke it and am fused at the t12 and l1. Second I have spinal steno-sis and disc that have worn out due to the fusion. I have already lost 70 lbs by going wheat free and changing my diet. Im stuck at 182 for the past three months. the pain itself is a show stopper if I dont move I'm fine. I force myself to walk at least 15 min a day.0

I struggle too. I have multiple conditions that sometimes gives the impression there is nothing wrong. Especially on 'good days' :-(. I realised something big today. For years on and off I have tried yoga because everyone says it will help with my back and strengthen the body core. I have never liked it and it has done nothing other than cause pain or at the very least nothing at all. This is unlike the Qiqong I do which also brings my heart rate down. Today I made the decision after realising my heart rate actually goes up with yoga due to the effort to do the movements/hold positions etc. I am not going to do it any more and will stick with the Qiqong. I sympathise with you all as it is so difficult to keep mobile and moving.0
