8. I'm thinking it happened when I recently pulled an old microwave out

and replaced it with a new one. Or at least that aggravated it.

The thing weighs well over 50 pounds I think, and it was up high, so I had to use only my outstretched arms to pull the old one out. I didn't have any place to set it down before bringing it into the garage, so I continued to carry it.

I couldn't get it into the garage without twisting it through a narrow doorway, again with outstretched arms only, no body support.
