Prayers needed!

Well I will keep this short. On Friday I was cleaning the wifes car when suddenly out of nowhere I started having a pain in my lower back. Actually it started out just tight and turned into a pain. Well by Friday afternoon I couldn't even walk. So I went to my Dr. and he said he thought I had a pinched nerve....so he gave me some meds and sent me home for bed rest.....

Well Saturday it wasn't any better and today I was to the point that I couldn't even get out of bed to go the the bathroom.....had to crawl to get there.

So I call the ER where I work to see what Doc's are there and one of my favorites was there and told me to come in and he would see me. Well now we are on more meds and they still don't know what it is. He is thinking more on the lines of slipped disc.....so I now have to go to a back dr. this week and hopefully we don't have to have surgery.

Never had any back problems, but now I know what it feels like. Anyways, just wanted to let you all know what was going on and ask you all to please be praying for me. THanks bunches,

Josh

Re: Prayers needed!

I've thrown my back oooot a few times. Sounds a lot like what I went through.

Hopefully the meds will work. Take it easy. Look into getting the Select Comfort mattress. It's expensive, but since I've had mine, I've never thrown my back out.

Oh, and oh yeah, I'll say a prayer for you too. grin.gif

Will do buddy! Backs are weird. You don't really know how much you need your back until it hurts too much to use it. I had a knot in my back one time and was having muscle spasms and it made it hard to sit in a class in a hard chair for an hour. Good luck to you and keep us updated!

Well the back seems to be a little better this morning. Hopefully the meds they gave me yesterday are starting to kick in. I am hoping I am about over it and it was just a bad sprain or something of the nature. I know that I am tired of it being there. Hurting since Friday so four days is enough......Thanks for the prayers everyone. God bless!

Re: Prayers needed!

The back is a funny thing. I have been having lower back pain and shoulder pain from my RC surgery in December due to moving.

I still have some percocet .... or did ... that I didn't take from the surgery. I took some just so that I could go to sleep and forget about the aching--knowing that I had more moving the next day. I figured staying up or tossing and turning wasn't going to help me any.

I woke up the next morning a new man. I think the pain meds and the anti-inflammatory gave the muscles the help they needed to repair itself.

Good luck,
