The back issues I have really only bother me if I am standing still for a long time or sleeping on a bad mattress. I went to a huge music festival last weekend, walked 3 miles round trip to it, and put in another 3 miles being there all day. The only time I was in pain was when I had to stand and wait for long periods of time. When I went to Cuba, we stayed in 3 different hotels as we visited multiple cities, and one hotel had a terrible mattress. It was really hard, so I could not get comfortable on my side or on my back. I was really hurting the next day. The other days, I was fine. So I feel pretty confident that I will do OK as long as I can make sure I get good accomodations.
