Why Blog?

A reasonable place to begin.

I have a health problem that comes and goes. When it comes it's debilitating and painful. I grit my teeth, struggle to put my socks on and very occasionally go and see a chiropractor or some health professional who is unable to help me alleviate it. It'll usually last for two weeks or so, the first week being particularly severe, then taper off to mild discomfort, then finally it'll abate more or less completely.

Each time it goes, I hope that maybe it's gone for good, but the condition always seems to return. Over the last year, it's been more active than usual, and it seems to be taking longer to abate each time. So I thought I'd better get on it and give it more attention than I have done.

There is not a lot of info out there on the web about this particular condition. In fact, I don't even know if it has a name. Maybe there is a lot of info about it but I lack the correct nomenclature to reveal it. Anyway, whatever the case, I'm starting a blog to discuss my progress and perhaps it can be a resource for other people suffering the same issues.

Assuming you have the nomenclature to find it, that is.
