I threw my back out last night.
I don't know how. One minute I was fine, the next minute I was bending over to put Chris in his swing and POW! The pain is excruciating.
I can't stand. I can't sit. I can't lay down. Craaaaaaaap.
Dr. Internet says the course of treatment is bed rest and pain meds, the two things I CAN'T do. I have a two year old and a nursling, so staying still and pain meds are both out of the equation.
Craaaaaaaaaap.
I'm trying not to let on (especially around the Bean) how much pain I'm feeling, but it's obvious that it's bad when just sitting up in bed with Dim's help had me sobbing.
Keep my back in your good thoughts. I'll just be over here fighting back the sobs.

I pulled a muscle in 2004 and my doc gave me pain meds and muscle relaxers, but the pain never went away. It wasn't until I couldn't get out of the bed one day that I considered a chiro. I was ready to propose to him after he adjusted me the first time.
