Still in a good amount of pain (if any amount is "good"), but I scheduled my first Physical Therapy appointment. They can't see me until April 12th. I was really sort of hoping by that point, my back wouldn't need their help!! I can hardly imagine having this pain pretty much continually till then.
Thanks to God for Tylenol. That's all I have to rely on right now -- that and Him. Some muscle relaxers for night time, too, I guess. But they're not helping me at all during the day. That's when I need my back most.
Prayers for healing are appreciated mucho.
Don't worry, I don't think it means you'll be in this same pain until then! I think PT is to help in case the pain flares up, and also to avoid long-term problems or chronic (but dull) pain. I'm sure you'll feel a lot better soon.. bodies just have a way of healing themselves.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the encouragement, Jessica.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, C came home from work this evening and not only has he had a cold for two days, but he hurt his back this morning! I feel like we're under attack or something, gosh!!
Just catching up on this. I just prayed for you! Back problems can be really painful and disrupting. :(
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you'll be better soon, if you aren't already, by now. Your PT appt. is tomorrow!
