Sneezing my way back to full vigour.

Tweet

I’ve had an awful back since 11 March when I bent down the wrong way to put something under the bed. I flew to Manchester that day and struggled with suitcases and stairs, and lay on an impossibly bad bed for 6 days. It was sore, and I started to wonder if there might be something else going on, something sinister. I don’t visit the doctor as a rule, but I was coming perilously close to making an appointment. Two days ago I was smitten with a bad cold. The wretched thing travelled about my head - throat, then behind my eyes, then in my nose. Then last night I had a sudden, violent fit of sneezing like I’ve never suffered before, sneeze upon sneeze in quick succession. Each explosion wrenched my entire being and I decided to remove my false teeth before any unseemliness might occur. When the detonations subsided I noticed that my back was no longer sore and remains so. I can even bend. Have you ever been cured in an unlikely manner?
