Current Events > $10,000 or absolutely no back pain for the rest of your life

(+) Yeah! (+)

Just wondering where the 28-36 year old CE users are at with this.

---

Is my back invincible or are all of the pain receptors in my back turned off? Being 5'3", back pain is a non-issue, but I could probably make money off of an indestructible back.

---

no back pain easy. 10k isn't much money. my back has hurt since i was a teen and gotten worse. nothing i've done has helped with it.

31, here, but I'd've taken this at 11. It was that bad that early.

---

I have severe scoliosis, this would immediately change my life.

I knew I should've gone up to a million, which idk if science has reached or will ever reach the point of metal spine fusion

I have a normal back with no pain, I still take the back thing

---

I'll take the no back pain for life that's invaluable and I'm 29.

---

Pain free. Another dumb poll.

Pain free and it's not even close.

It will literally a dream when i am in my 70s and still can marathon games for 12 hours straights

Pain free

Back pain freeness plz. Aint even a question

Does that include the muscles in the back or just the bone? If muscles then I'll take that. My muscles are all screwed up in my back.

---

I'm taking the money because I've already experienced terrible back pain. Shattered my third lumbar vertebra in 2007 after falling out of a tree, had all five lumbar vertebrae fused and so now nothing that happens to me even really registers very high on the pain scale because of how much all that hurt.

Pain is generally good for you. People who don't experience pain usually damage themselves.

---

I just recently started to get back problems and I hope its just because Ive been so sedentary lately and theyll clear up if I start exercising more again.

But yeah they really suck. Sometimes Ill have to literally stop and take breaks when walking a few blocks to the store. So definitely the adamantium spine, please.

Also pain is good when it's "Hey, you need to stop doing this before something bad happens". Not so much when it's chronic pain that starts up because you exist.

No back pain.

I broke my sacrum a few years ago and Ive been experiencing discomfort since then. Of course, rx painkillers are not an option because I dont want to use a serious narcotic. Since the medical field refuses to make any effort to make an effective painkiller that isnt outright dope, I have to use over the counter stuff.

My skeleton is big, and my older self will appreciate the back investment.

---

Chronic back pain is a significant issue for most elderly, so while my back has always been fine as an almost 36 year-old, it'd be dumb of me to assume it'd always be the case. I'd easily trade 10K for guaranteed no issues with a major health and lifestyle issue for the rest of my life.

---

No back pain. I will possibly spend more than $10,000 in the future trying to treat back pain anyway.

Same. My neck as well, as it close enough that it counts as part of the back? >_>

But either way I'd take not being in constant pain and struggling to carry my two year old for more than a few seconds over 10k.

---

I've been having back pains for years

10k isn't even half a years money

Easy option

Money. But I've never experienced any serious back pain, and the posts here are kinda changing my mind. I don't want that pain when I'm older

---

I suffer from some mild to 2 to 3 severe stenosis, cervical. No pain thankfully. Just stiffness, tingling, and feels like an elephant is piggybacking on me at times. But happens mostly after work out, which I can't seem to stop. Gawd dammit. Maybe I should sign up for medical marijuana someday.

---

I have back issues and I would definitely take the no back pain over the $10,000 or even $100,000.

---

I'm 31 with no problems at all, but I'd be crazy if I didn't choose the second option. The point of reaching the golden years is to get there intact and well taken care of.


---

I'll probably spend more than that on my back over the course of my life.

---

As someone who has suffered near constant back pain for years due to a work injury, I would take the no back pain in an instant. When you cant even stand up or get out of bed in the morning without being in pain, it just sucks.

For me it was referred pain elsewhere.

Imagine blue balls cranked up to 100, every time you stand up.

And yes, it was back related, my balls were fine.

---

Damn does like 90% of CE of suffer from back pain? What's up with that?

I did have one back incident a couple of months ago. Bulging disc caused by a cough, lol. I tried waiting until the next day to go to urgent care, but I started having muscle spasms and had to get an ambulance. Definitely the most painful experience of my life so far.

Other than that no real back problems.
