April Photo A Day - 11

Day 11 - Something I Found



This is a very loose interpretation of the subject, but I'm nothing if not original. 
This is a picture of the xray report I had of my back last week....I "found" what has been wrong with my back all these years...and it's NOT arthritis or bursitis or any other itis....the primary cause is a SI(sacroiliac) joint injury, likely occurred in childhood before the growth plates closed, then they close...and here I am some 20+ years later with chronic low back pain.
(BTW....the sacroiliac joint is the area where the spine connects with the pelvis.)


P.S.  I also have spurs, degenerative changes, reduced disk height, and scoliosis.  Nice.

No "cure"....treatment, that thus far has provided little relief.
