However, I am delighted that it was nothing more serious. In my line of work as a cancer surgeon, there are sadly many backache scenarios that are much worse. I?m very pleased to hear that you are getting better, and I?m just relieved that you don?t have to lug around two DMRs and a heap load of heavy R glass. Get well soon and don?t forget to drink more whisky. That helps a lot!
