Here I am on a Friday night stuck in bed because of my back. Pain is awful. It hurts to walk, sit, lay, and everything in between. Tomorrow I will start steroids for the fourth time since the car accident. I have been stuck in bed since we got home yesterday after I picked the boys up from school. Noah had to drive us home. Ashleigh did not go to her riding lesson Wednesday night because I was not up to it & Ethan did not go to his thing on Thursday night. I knew this was coming.
My back is inflamed. Not sure why. Everything always goes back to the car accident. I have never had a year where I was put on steroids for 4 times. On September 21, I re-injured my shoulder from the car accident. I had a corticoid shot in my shoulder. It helped some. I am in PT, but I missed 1 of 2 sessions this week because I can not move. If I am not better by Monday, it's back to see my pain management doctor. This is the best I am going to get. If I do too much, I pay for it dearly. I am still very angry at this driver. Why didn't he stop? Why did he have to go through that (red light) intersection at 60 mph? Why did he have to lie about it twice?
Time to slow down again. Time to rest. I am bored!! I can't be doing this when there are things to get done, but here we are again. Pain is at a 10. I can't get off the bed without wanting to cry. I can't get my legs onto the bed without wanting to cry. I can't roll over without pain. I can't do anything.
Breathe!
