Meh, fifth day of back pain strong enough to limit movement. Pain management had me get a nerve block. I am now in over night observation at the hospital. I start PT tomorrow, hopefully this gets better in a few days of therapy.
Here's hopong you either aren't american or have good insurance:) What brought on the back pain?
American, but I qualify for government insurance so everything tends to get covered and I pay nothing for it. Back pain is ultimately from Spina Bifida. Why this particular escalation in pain is happening, I believe, is because I recently spent a few days out of town which I slept on an air mattress. While the air mattress I have is a nice one, my back is exceptionally mercurial in attitude.
