MY MINIONS

Feeling OK For Now

Well, first I have to say thank you all for the Get Well wishes. Makes my heart sing. I'm feeling a bit better but I won't really know if the Facet Injections worked for at least until next week. It takes a while for this stuff to work

I had Bilateral Facet Injections meaning I had an injection on both sides of the L4-L5 of my lower back. I have an appointment on the 20th of September with my pain doctor who did them. Then we will know if I will need more injections or not.

Yesterday I was really out of it. The surgical nurses gave me something to calm my nerves and bring the pain down to a manageable level. It finally wore off about 2 am this morning. I mean to tell y'all, nurses know all the great drugs. I was seeing double and I don't even remember David driving me home, the drugs were that good.

Right now the pain in my back is minimal but they told me to not go full assed ballistic with house work or heavy lifting. Not feeling like I want to at this point in time. I just want to take it easy and wait to see what happens next month.

I certainly hope that procedure gives you some relief. Have never heard of it before -- is it something new?

Jesus H. Christ girl, you a hot mess! I don't know how you do it. I have a high threshold for pain because of my Endometrios and migraines, but that bullshit is off the charts. I hope you are up and at 'em soon so you can get into some good 'ol fashioned trouble ; ) I blogged about my award by the way. I had soooooooooo much fun thinking of the 7 things! Thanks for including me : )
