I can always count on you gals to pick me up when I'm feeling so hopeless about this pain I find myself in right now. DH drove me to Walmart this afternoon for a few sewing notions I needed (I hate their tight parking lot spaces!). I walked in, grabbed a cart, went straight to the notions, picked up thread and fabric markers, walked to the check-out, DH was with me all the time...by the time I got to the doors to leave, the pain was back so fiercely that I had to stop and stand still at least 3 times to get to our van, parked perhaps no farther than 10 spaces from the door. He told me to go back to the store, he'd get the van and pick me up, but by then I was half-way to it, so no point in trying that.....
If I can't walk that far, what on earth is going on?!
I told my chiropractor today that I was very discouraged, that whatever he was doing wasn't working, so he explained what was going on, what he was doing (all over again, neuromuscular message), and that in spite of how I felt, he felt that it was getting better, not as tight, that things were moving around and that I would eventually find relief. Phhht. Okay. Fine. But my patience is wearing thin. What am I to do about my late brother's daughter's wedding at the end of September?! If I can't walk, what's the point in going?? Honestly. I'll be in a wheelchair if this doesn't improve.
Thank you @
Natalka, and @
22hicks....unfortunately having wine is wishful thinking with the muscle relaxants and pain pills I'm on.....maybe tomorrow I'll switch things up....wine may replace drugs!!
Thank you, Ladies....:sweet::sweet:
