Pain in the back

Yes, I have broke my back. No jokes about Brokeback, I have acute back pain and damage to lower lumbar 1st vertebrae. So when I went to Arkansas to see my brother Cary, I couldn't lie down flat and needed to sleep in Lazy boy chair. Last Wednesday, the ortho Surgeon had x-rays done, and the condition was very visible. Will I be able to ride on the Further bus when it makes the CA leg of the tour??  I start water therapy next week and will start a treatment of Chinese medicine to heal my back.

If you have any other techniques, please share with Dr. Prankster.
