Won’t catch me with boxes stacking,
Won’t see me with any product packing,
Wish I had the knowledge to on the computer do hacking,
Right now with pain I am in no way lacking…
My lower back is really killing me,
I doubt I could even try to carry a flea,
To a doctor I should really try to see,
But all they can do is prescribe pills,
I might as well tell them to go climb a tree…
I have pain pills & just took a muscle relaxer,
In a short time I will be able to do little but purr,
Taking meds I would much rather deter,
But if I am going to live & work,
I need the medications that I did above refer…
I cannot sit in a tub of hot water,
Standing in the shower is also quite difficult,
I really try to be herein an adult,
But sometimes only crying helps, of the pain it is the only result…
I’d like to make you smile,
To make you laugh,
To enjoy your smile all the while,
But if I laugh it hurts even more,
As usually comedy is my writing style…J

Speedy recovery,
Hugs,Laura
Ed, I'm sorry your back went out; hope it comes..."back"...soon! *grins*
Don't let Rufuz jump on you, don't sneeze or cough, and don't make any sudden moves. Take a nice, hot bath, put heated back patches on your spine, and take it easy. If it doesn't help, see a doc; see what he can do to help. Very well done; I felt this one! *OW*
(((HUGS))) (gentle hugs at that) and much love, your friend in Tx., Karen Lynn. :(
And I can still put on my own pants - although I do prefer going naked!
THE 2 SUGGESTIONS ALREADY MADE BELOW ARE BOTH GREAT! ACUPUNCTURE AND CHIROPRACTIC. In some practices, in some states, both are offered under the same roof.
My son is trained in both!
If a vertebra or a disk is out of place, and pressing on a nerve, all the pills in the world won't put it back where it belongs. And hiding the symptom and continuing to move around can make the injury worse! A good Chiropractor will take X-RAYS 1ST, before he ever touches you! Usually some galvanic stimulation ( pulsating electric impulses ) and manipulation offer some measure of immediate relief. Also, there are specific exercises that he may recommend.
pills are the only things M.D.'s do -- they don't heal, they MASK the pain!
surgery is an absolute LAST RESORT! DON'T PLAY AROUND -- GET HELP! TOM.
Is Acupuncture it works without
Pain killers I when through back problems
And was told by my doctor
Surgery was the only way Its been 3 years
since I when through Acupuncture for 2 months
and till now have no pain, it was to the point that
I could not even walk or bend!
I hope this helps And take care!!
Love And Peace To you always
your friend....Morning Star
I can commiserate. I've had back probs for years. But dang, I was hoping for your help in packing/moving boxes...you know, STUFF? :) J/K. :)
Try a new mattress. Hot showers. Cold/heat packs. Tylenol.
Hope you feel better, and don't let Rufuz jump on ya.
(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.
Here you are with dire back pain and still...you maintain levity for your fans. I appreciate this and I appreciate you! See a chiropractor. I hurt my lower back once, spent 20K on a nuerosurgeon and a chiropractor got me well in two trips. Hey!
He got me to believe.
Feel better soon.
Love,
Susan
