:lol: no... it was a car wreck i was in when i was 18... spent two weeks in
traction and had a malagram done but they didn't find
anything... that procedure is where they inject an iodine-based liquid in
your spine and then look at the flow of it in a live x-ray... takes some
hours afterward for the iodine stuff to be absorbed by your body and you
have to stay flat the whole time or it will give you some pretty massive
headaches...
