Grumble Grumble Grumble..... Bah!!

I managed to strain a muscle in my back (lower left side - very specific area) Friday evening - and, Friday/Saturday/Sunday nights it's woken me up at 4:30am (on the dot - how does it know?) in throbbing pain (not sharp pain but a freakish sickening throbbing).

The first night it scared me quite a bit because I didn't know what was happening. I thought I was having kidney failure or something.

Once up - I spentd the rest of the, so called, "morning" laying half upright on the couch trying to get in as many zzz's as possible before it was time to start the day.

I'm back at work - and the sitting for 9 hours is taking its toll. I'm in pain and dead dog tired from the past few nights of little sleep. I'm on my second Monster and THANK GOODNESS for a friend who gave me some painkiller/attitiude adjusters that start with a "V" and end in an "N" which doesn't take away the pain fully, but puts me in a state of mind to not care about it. ;-)

Other than that - life is peachy though :-)

How did you strain the muscle in your back?

I hope you feel better real soon.

I did it shaving my legs in the shower I think. Marcel only has a shower stall - not a tub as well, so I was scrunched up and twisted like a pretzel trying to get myself all shaved. :-/

Back pain is no fun.

Perhaps this is a little push in the right direction to change jobs?

oh gosh is it the dull pain? That's the worst.

Can you get up and stretch at work? I have to do that all the time, about every 15-20 minutes I stand up, stretch, or walk around the cubicle.

What a good friend to provide the attitude adjustment. :)

Don't mess about with that pain. Go see a Dr.

oh my goodness.. me too! (Saturn is in Libra which rules the lower back!)I put my back out or a rib or something & last night (you know how they say, it was done with mirrors) I had to do it with pillows last night, propping myself this way and that every time I woke up. (lots) I hope you feel better soon.. I'm going to see my chiropractor! This is really a drag.. harrumph!
