On Sunday in Brisbane, I started to get a back pain in my lower back, just off to the left hand side.  Monday it was still there and started to make me walk funny almost as it if was in my hip.  Monday I hobbled around the Zoo after I flew back from Brisbane.  I was in the office on Tuesday and planned on leaving about midday… got out at 7pm due to some mail problems at my company.  I worked from home Wednesday, had Thursday and Friday off. Wednesday morning it had moved up my back slightly and was a constant pain.  The pain has gradually been getting better… it’s still not right..

The doctor put it down as ‘musculoskeletal back injury’ on my medical certificate.  It’s now the following Monday and I’m still in some pain… Stretching and pain killer are pretty much all I can do… I’ll give it another week and hopefully it should fully recover… ready for Melbourne at the end of the month (which will be organised soon).
