@Thomas,
Couldn't have doctor here@@@@!!!! Never got half the housework done!!


Got to physio.......thinks it is a bulging disk, (not herniayed or prolapsed or whatever the hell is worse than bulging...if this is bulging never give me the worserer one, please!!) plus exacerbation of sacroiliac thing.

Plus mucho inflammation etc.

Says have to stay home at least one more full day after today...doctor if need stronger painkillers.

Have a lying down exercise...which is kinda how I was lying anyway...and keep up with the drugs.

@dlowan,
Sorry to hear this, Deb. I was hoping for a bit more improvement today. (No doubt you were, too!) What a bugger!

@msolga,
No Deb online tonight. I hope this means she's getting a good night's sleep. About time, I say! Smile

@msolga,
I certainly hope so. A bit worried about her. Glad she made it to a medical personage, at least...

@dlowan,
Glad to see you, bunny. Wish the news was better. Worrying about you halfway across the planet. Sending a very gentle hug and nasty thoughts to your back.

@Roberta,
Thank you Boida.

I have exercises to do.

I think my leg (referred pain) is a bit less numb.

How can somehing hurt like hell, and still be kind of numb?


That's proof there is no benevolent god, right?

It's PERVERSE!!!!


Had to take today (Friday) off as well. Hoping like hell I am ok for Monday!!!!!

Just did a multiple-agency super-urgent phone link-up for work though.....I can still talk and think!!!

@dlowan,
I'd give you a hug, but I don't want to throw out your back again.

I hope the pain eased up a bit today, Deb.
I have no answer to your question about pain, yet numbness at the same time. Seems very bloody perverse to me, too!

So you're still working while home in this sorry state? Doesn't seem right somehow. But I think I understand why you're doing it. Most likely less frantic catch-up when you are back on the job.

Here's wishing you a restful & not-too-painful weekend!

Answer to your question: Tis a puzzlement and a perversity.

Of course you can talk and think. It would take more than mere agony to stop da bunny from thinking.

@dlowan,
Bullfeathers, bunny. You'll be dead three days, and you'll still be thinking.

Hoping your pain is diminishing.

In the words of my grandma, enough already.

@margo,
I think I am a bit better.

Able to sit and type with only moderate pain.

Physio says take at least 2 more days off work....but I am beginning to think that, if I can lie down between clients, I might be able to go in on Monday (which is a REALLY heavy day) and take Tuesday off.

Wait and see.

Work is piling up like you wouldn't believe and scaring me half to death.


I don't care HOW cold it is.....as long as it keeps raining, even if only a bit!

Spent two "delightful" days in my local hospital. Had vertigo, with weakness and disequilibrium. Thought that I had a stroke or T.I.A., but the tests showed nothing. Probably a bad case of acute neuroticism.
I am going for my heart valve replacement in 2 weeks.

Came home yesterday, and living on anti-dizziness meds. Am feeling better. Maybe I will venture outside for a bit tomorrow.

@Phoenix32890,
Oh, Phoenix, I didn't get it that your symptoms were so tough.
Dare I ask about blood pressure? I've had that after taking blood pressure pills (don't get me going).
