My awesome day (but really not awesome)

So at 4:30 this morning I awoke with the most excruciating back pain I have ever experienced. I have had back issues for the past four years or so, but nothing like this. Luckily my chiropractor had an opening early this morning. I am still in a lot of pain, but it is getting a little better. I've been on the couch all day watching movies and switching out ice and heat packs. I go back to the chiropractor tomorrow morning and then I will try to go to work. Anyone else have bad back issues? What helps when you hurt?

Re: My awesome day (but really not awesome)

  • I have back issues, but never as bad as what you're going through.  All I do is get massages and take advil and do stretches. Sorry you're feeling so crappy.

    Here's my day, if it makes you feel any better:

    I came home to find that my dog was REALLY sick.  She had puked, peed, pooped and/or had diarriah in about ten different spots in our house -- all on the carpet.  So, I spent about an hour cleaning it up and trying not to puke.

  • Oh no poor pup! I hope everything is ok! I have tried massages before but they usually make things worse :( I'm hoping that things will be better in the morning. Thanks for the good thoughts though!
  • It's only happened once to me, but the only thing that helped me was laying on a hard wood floor with a heating pad and taking advil.

    Back pains are the worst! I hope you start feeling better soon! 

  • omg, i'm so sorry! people that i know that have backpain lay on a hard flat surface like uw suggested and it usually helps them. that sounds like a seriously crappy day. :(

    i hope today is better!
