Not rude at all, but yes. My posture wasn’t great and I’ve worked on it quite a bit. I use a sit/stand desk and alternate regularly and am super conscious of my posture now.

I have a sacralized L5-S1, and doctors have discouraged surgery because they’re not confident it’ll help. I’ve had years of PT and several rounds of epidurals, all of which helped a bit but not completely. At this point it’s more about learning to manage the pain. I’ve kind of given up hope of full recovery.
