Know what you mean Roger I couldn't do socks for weeks and was scared to sit for too long as I had to be helped up. As you say, the most frustrating part is being unable to do anything, especially go out. Hopefully your back will get better in time, my back took a few months until I felt confident enough to go back to work. My doctor advised me to try to keep active but not to bend, lift or make sudden movements. At the time the advice was easy to follow as I couldn't do any of them anyway. Still you can always take wildlife photographs out of the window.
