I threw out my back sorting laundry. Badly enough that I couldn’t stand up or walk, because bodies are poorly designed. I do not recommend being strapped to a back board and carried down stairs, because that shit is terrifying. 

 

On the one hand, xrays didn’t show anything. On the other hand, still in massive pain and can’t really walk, so I’ve been admitted, and am now on a “multi modal pain protocol”: Drugs. Steroids, Tylenol, ibuprofen, gabapentin, and hell yeah opiates.

So sorry to hear it!

Ugh, I'm so sorry you're spending part of the holiday season that way. I hope the drugs at least control the pain.

OMG honey!! Dad and I caught up a little over the washing machine yesterday and he said you had thrown your back out and were going to the chiropractor. This is much much worse than either he thought or he made it sound (granted, dad is a master of down playing any sort of health concern). Do you have everything you need there? How long will be you staying there, do they know?

I really hope they are able to fix you up well. Any emergency stays are awful, but over christmas seems especially sucky. I am so sorry you are in so much pain.

On the bright side, you do already have corsets to give you back support while you recover, right? *sigh* well, I am hoping that if supportive braces are required they will count as such anyway.

Ouch! Hope you're feeling better soon, Miss Jillian.

Bad, bad, bad that you're in pain. Good that you're getting the good shit? Get well soon.

It's always the mundane stuff that messes people up, isn't it?

Awww hon! That bites. Glad you are getting treated and hope they get you sorted soon.

That sounds appalling. I hope you recover quickly.
