Welcome itchy , fantastic intro and wish all new comers would take the time for more than a one line hello .
No good about your health issues getting in the way of the great outdoors mate but there are a few of us here that have similar circumstances even same pain meds that can maybe give you a tip or two or even lend an ear if you need to let off some steam .
Or just use the pm option if you need a yak at any stage .

Have back trouble myself and recently did a two month trip to the corner country , used a few more pills than I normally pop and when we finally got home it took a while to recover but enjoyed every second of it despite a bit more pain .

welcome to the forum mate

sounds like an interesting time you have had, not everyone with a disability wears a helmet and rides on the little bus

love your attitude to life, and hope you enjoy all

G'day mate and welccome to the forum. Sorry about your problems, but good to see you getting on with it. As GQtdauto says there are a few on here with health/pain issues, some more than others, but you have got to stay in there and make the best of what you have got.
