And just like that, the cyst in my low back is gone! (It looked like a little raisin.) My doc got the whole thing out, and I've been stitched up and made it home in one piece. Sleet is happening, and driving the .25 miles to get from the clinic back home was sketchy. My car was covered in ice, and so are the roads. If you're in the Twin Cities, please be careful today, friend!
