Thanks for the insight into your back pain issues/solutions. I have PT on board, will consult with a Doc about my recent MRI, and most likely end up getting facet injections to start. One thing for certain, every back is different, and being conservative about treating it is probably best.

Plus, it may be the right time after recovery to refit myself on the bike, if the Doc clears me.

I'll post any new developments, if they occur
