I had a procedure done on my lumbar spine this morning. It hurt so bad and I have a high tolerance for pain.. So here I am at home by myself and sometimes... you know? This is very unusual for me to reach out like this but...
Oh Maggie, I am so sorry you have had this suffering. It is so frustrating that our backs are so fragile and have not been made for a full life of wear and tear. I am thinking of you and praying for your comfort and healing.
Maggie I am so sorry I hope it was a injection for pain and that it will soon take, if not get on some pain pills and take every four hours for at least the next 8hrs. Sometimes when we have procedures we feel victimized, not fair but you have us here and reach out often I wish I had one of those good jokes now to make you smile. Ice packs can help and then a hot bath to loosen up your back. Take care sending you a huge hug!
Oh Maggie, I wish I could send all those fancy schmancy pictures - but I don't know how. All I can do is tell you that I am so sorry you are going through this pain. I am SO glad that you knew you could reach out -
consider yourself hugged. You mean so much to so many here - you are going to have the STUFFING hugged outta you before the day is done!
Maggie----I can't "do" pictures....but I sure can do hugs!!!! Sending you millions and millions----feel better. Know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.
Oh my dear Maggie Im thinking Pain, Lumbar, procedure.... Blown Disc? You are very important to me Maggie and if I had the ability to do the fancy stuff (you know eventually I will learn) I would spend an hour sending you the best stuff I could! HOWEVER... I'm not there just yet. Im so sorry your in pain my friend. Take it easy please and only take what you absolutely must (narcotics) because ALL narcotics cause constipation. Pain in the lumbar region and pushing dont mix yanno 🙂 If you must...go ahead, use the narcotics but add plenty of fluids and also at least one stool softerner. drinking prune juice helps, too. If there is anything I can do , please let me know. ((((((((((((((((((((((MAGGIE))))))))))))))))))))))
Im a quitter not a loser~
