This morning started out really great. I did not lift anything
heavy. Drove somewhere in my pickup to pick a tool box. When I got out
of the truck, just after 30 minutes of driving, I had sudden back pain
and could not stand up straight without some pain.

For the next 2 hours, I could function, move around and carry things,
but with substantial discomfort.

Then I tried to turn a toolbox around, kind of pushed with one hand in
one direction. Then the pain suddenly became so severe that I could
barely walk. Barely made it to the couch, where I am right now,
totally out of commission.

WTF is wrong and does anyone have any idea if this will ever go away.

Herniated disk?

sure sounds like it.
Or a badly pinched nerve from other causes.

Hotpad, some muscle relaxers and dont move for the next 2 days.

Or go immediately to a chiropractor and see if they can pop your spine
back into place.

Kidney stones can fall out of the sky and hit you like a Greyhound bus, too.
If it is that, you'll know soon enough. It is a very exclusive club. After
kidney stones, your pain scale will be on a 1-15 instead of a 1-10. You
think you are going to die, but you are afraid you won't. BTDT twice.

Heart surgery pending?

A friend (lady) nurse once told me that passing a kidney stone, was
similar to giving birth....to a baby grand piano.

I agree. Been there, done that.
