This week has not been going very well for me. In the afternoon on Monday, my pain level was raising. By the time I had to make dinner, I was in pain that was beyond awful. I made sure the kids had their dinner and went to lay down, but I could not get comfortable no matter how I laid down. I texted Shawn and my back. Told him I may have to go to the ER if I do not improve. If it was not for my friend that I texted and told her about the pain I was in, I would have landed my butt in the ER. She told me to use my tens unit. Duh, how could I forget about my tens unit? Well, it worked. My tens unit got my pain down to where I could handle it.
I can not stand too long or sit too long. I am fine at first, but the longer I sit or the longer I stand, the more pain I have. Tens unit is helping, but there has to be something else. Today I broke down and called my pain management doctor. I knew if I was not seen soon that I would be no good to my kids, but that appointment is not until July 26th. Of course, this coming week is full of camp days, meetings, doctor appointments and I am the one doing it all.
