Well, I woke up this morning, turned to my right and tried to swing my legs outa bed and OOOOOOOOOOUUUUUUUCCCCHHHH!!!!!
Dunno what I've done or how I've done it, but I'm in agony with back pain! Managed to crawl to the bathroom & back, then crawl downstairs. Never felt pain like it :'( :'( :'( brought me to tears.
I can't remember ever being pained by a bad back before and I've done some silly stuff in the past, feels like someone I've gave a ticket to in the past has made a voodoo doll of me & is sticking red hot pins in the base of my spine :( :( :(
Doc's rang, appointment for next Tuesday ::) ::) ::)

I suffer from something like this ocsnly, the Doc tells me it is caused by a muscle spasm, and she also said that she also suffers from it, and, as a mother, thinks it was more painful than childbirth! :o :o :o
You have my heartfelt sympathy, I find it takes two days before I can move freely, and about 5 for it to clear up. :y

You were lucky then!
I get a slipped disc time to time.....doc will only prescribe painkillers and ive ended up at an osteopath to fix me
Heres to a speedy recovery :)

At least 'when' I do get a diagnosis I'll be able to get things moving privately, glad I kept the Healthcare option subscriptions going at work.

If there is noticable swelling, then anti inflams might work, as liable to be muscle and soft tissue. If no swelling, it could be skeletal, in which case I'd personally wait for quack, and keep pain killers to a minimum - pain is a self defence mechanism to prevent you doing more damage...

It does feel like I've seized up, lower back has no movement in it whatsoever without me sounding like a cat on a hot tin roof! Also started getting an aching in me plumbs now :o :o :o :o

Years ago quacks used tell you to lie still and wait till it gets better.....until they discovered patients were getting DVT's.
LAst time I went to the docs with a slipped disk, he prescribed me 5x strength painkillers (that you could buy over the counter) and told me to keep moving.....

Edited to make sense ::)

Paracetamol and Ibuprofen will help, if you have a bulging disc the docs will give you something a bit stronger to manage the pain so you can keep moving.
The worst thing you can do is rest it as the back muscles will stiffen up and just pull on the nerves more, if you can, get some physio asap as this will help loosen the muscles and will speed up recovery time :y
-
Been to the Walk-n centre who referred me to A&E, spent 1hr there and came out with loads of pills destined to get me high for at least a week, then in for physio if needed. Think I may have a bulging disc.
Looking at the pills I got there's - no driving, operating machineary, exerting myself or drinking of alcohol :( :( :( :( for at least a week!!!
-
That list covers pretty much everything... Fuertaventura is pretty good value at the moment... if you can't do anything for a week, you might as well do nothing somewhere warm ::)
Will also help you resist tinkering if the Disco is 2,500 miles away ;)

If you have a bulging disc then do plenty of short walks to help keep the back muscles mobile, resting is the worst thing you can do as getting mobile again hurts a lot more.

too many donuts

Not being used to medication, I get that effect with Nightnurse.
Nightnurse with a wee dram (for medicinal purposes), that's 24hrs gone.

Instead of 14hrs sleep, you'll get a few more hours in the land of nod, if you have a beer or two :y ;D

Drink a can or two and watch Event Horizon and let me know if it makes any sense at all... ::)

Will this work with Southland Tales? I've watched it sober and drunk and my only critical comment is errrr?????
-
Well, it appears to have SMG in it which makes it worth a look, and it has Kevin Smith in it which suggests artistic merit... But there's not much else to add ???

I must be getting old, as we often watch films and ask each other, "WTF?"

Not sure what they've given you but if it's anything like what they gave me for my back, DON'T DRINK!! Made myself rather unwell with just a small glass of wine and learnt my lesson :-X ::)

Well just been back to the Quack for a sit rec. & he's doubled the amount of pills 500mg Co-codamol & Naproxin and is also sending me for a scan :'( :'( :'( :'(
I asked him how long it would be to get the scan done (NHS) and he ummed & arrred. Qucik phonecall to my Health care provider at work, who said 'Fill in the form we sent you, get your doc to sign it & come in whenever you want'. :) :) :) :)
-
Be careful with the Naproxin, it can rot away the stomach lining and cause it to bleed :y
Co-Codamol and Ibruprofen (3 x 400mg tabs, 3 times a day) sorted me out when I slipped a disc in my back.... Doctor wanted me to be off work for 2 weeks, I refused and sorted meself out in a couple of days :y
