Oh dear, my back!

September 11th, 2007

Just a quick note to everyone before my muscle relaxers and pain meds kick in………I hurt my back! On Sunday the right side seized up on me keeping me from sleeping, then it spread to my whole torso.

Last night I had a massage and the girl was wonderful and really worked on my back, but unfortunately the good feeling only lasted about 20 minutes before getting sore again. Today when I went to my the gym I was walking oh so slowly and my personal trainer spent a lot of time with me stretching.

However tonight it all got to be too much and I went to the Dr. and was offered some medications to help my back. He thinks my scoliosis may have something to do with the pain, so we are getting a new spinal x-ray soon. It was nearly the worst pain every, only my wrist breaking hurt more. I was in so much pain that I was actually sick and crying……in public. Im not a ‘pretty’ crier, so that doesnt happen unless it has to!

Anyway, Im on somewhat bedrest for a couple days. Just relaxing with my many medications and trying to sleep. I will have to excuse myself from BINGO, which is sad since I’ve been having so much fun! And everything will probably be super quiet here until the weekend.

I am very blessed that nothing major was wrong, no kidney infection or broken bones (this time!) and every time we pick up a bag full of medications I am reminded of our awesome insurance yet again. Thank you microsoft! I will be back to stamping ASAP and I hope everyone has a wonderful week.

    Elizebeth, I am so sorry your back is so sore. I will keep track of your Bingo numbers for you and you can always check the previous numbers when you’re up to it. I don’t see anyone winning soon, I think. Get better soon.

    Hi Elizabeth!

    We will miss you at BINGO (we would hardly be playing at all if it wasn’t for your great cards!)…
    but it’s more important that you take care of yourself, and your back!

    We’ll be here when you are up and around again.

    Feel better :)

    You poor thing. Take it easy. Don’t stress about bingo. You have done more than your fair share in the last week. Hope you feel better soon.

    I hope you are up and about sooner than expected. Thanks so much for all the bingo love. We will have to pick it up to keep the numbers going. Barb can let us know if you get a bingo.
