Back pain. Do you have it?

Just a word of caution if anyone has back pain. Always worth it to have it checked out as soon as possible.

I know somebody who thought his severe, intermittant back pain was due to a slipped disk (he used to lift weights quite a bit). When he finally saw the doctor, they performed several scans (CAT and MRI) and found that the pain was due to kidney cancer - spread to the spine. So, better to get it looked at sooner rather than later.

Hope that helps.
