Hi
Anyone know if pain that is really bad in the morning and then eases off is a particular indicator of anything?
I did have pain, then sciatica - now the sciatica has eased off and I have strong pain for the first couple of hours every day.
Mattress?
I used to wake up like you said, the mattress was not supportive enough. Since we changed that 5-6 years ago to memory one, hardly remember what back ache feel like.

Are you doing something that you would really rather not be doing first thing in the morning mouse?

Yes, going to the job I hate.

Keeping going to a job you hate leads to soul loss leads to intrusions leads to back pain.
Back problems
It is likely to be matress related. Have you had your matress a long time or have you just bought a new one. Stay away from the over firm varieties. Choose one that supports in the right places properly, like a latex. They are more expensive but, hey, you spend a third of your life in bed and a good night sleep is more important to your health than you may have appreciated. Finally the other factor in your condition may be stress. Stress depletes energy from your spine. So if you are going through a period of stress it is going to make a recurring back problem show up. Try deep breathing relaxation methods, meditation. There is a great chi gong exercise to relieve the effects of stress on the body, called rolling the arms. If you have neither of these problems, seek out a good chiropractor.

Looks like you have no choice then, but to carry on the way you are.

What about ([url]from your dreams thread[/url]) :
I had a fascinating dream last night, so felt inspired to put it on here!
Someone was doing something dangerous - going to a land where they were a target (it might have been me or an aspect of me, not sure). They were out in the open and massive boulders were being rolled down to hit them. I thought it was very dangerous to go there then I saw a circle of black panthers and this made me feel very happy instead - somehow it was alright with them there! Later on I was in a monastery/cave and I saw 3 candles going out - this seemed to mean that someone had died and I felt upset again.
and...
So many questions! Well it's a deep one, I'll have to carry it round with me for a while to figure it out. So far by feel ......it represents an inner journey of some sort, the panthers represent powerful helpers/allies, they also feel quite supernatural for want of a better word! It could also be a forecast of things to come.

What about that? I can't see how that dream has anything at all to do with having lower back pain. Had the the pain before the dream and since......
Hey Mouse 🙂
Sorry to see you needing to post on the back boards. I am very sympathetic to anyone suffering from back pain.
Does the pain start when you get out of bed or when you are waking and still lying down? Would it go if you went back and laid flat? Or would it still be there niggling?
Most often pain in the morning that wears off is from an injury/damage that has stiffened overnight, pain that worsens over the day is more likely to have an inflammatory cause like arthritis.
I wish that it was as simple as back pain being a symptom of a job we didn't like, bad karma, or a bad mattress!
