Update on Life
FREAKING BACK - STOP HURTING. PLEASE!
So, I was rear ended on May 21, 2009. Car suffered 8 grand of damage. I on the other hand, seem to be getting worse and not better. I am growing very tired of my back pain. It was bearable for a while, and now it is at the point that I just want to lay down and be depressed all the time. While I still go to work, my mind is continually hounded by the fact that my muscles are tighter than hell, I crack when I breathe, and have random spasms and sharp, burning pain.
I have an amazing Doctor @ Cedar Sinai, and that has been a blessing. However, I'm young, I feel like I'm 90. I can't sleep at night due to muscle spasms and pain. Vicodin can only help so much, and I am not taking a ton because I do not want to become addicted. I'm out of my painkillers tomorrow. I'm not too excited about this, as they allow me to continue to work, but it seems like an overwhelming situation to me now. I'd give anything to go back to life before I was hit. Back pain is no joke, and anyone out there will agree that has chronic pain somewhere. I think next week I will go to the pain management specialist that was suggested to me. I really can't live like this much longer and expect to be productive.
