yay for walking without crying?
So heating pad + my back? SO MUCH FEEL GOOD. It's not even close to making me feel 100%, because even when I'm sitting here, sighing happily, I can feel the soreness in my back, but I was able to get up, walk down the stairs, and like, bend over almost completely without too much discomfort. I'm fully aware that this is only temporary, and that in the morning I'll probably be even worse off, but at least for now, I can move around without things spasming and making me want to cry.
For the record, I cried three times today. Mostly out of frustration, like not being able to put my boots on without some serious effort. OTOH, I did get out of the house to go grocery shopping with grandpa, and I spent most of the day on my feet helping with cooking. I went to the pharmacy and asked for some muscle relaxants, but apparently there are no OTC ones available. I got some meloxicam instead, but that's like, 1 pill a day, and it didn't really do anything. My grandpa has some stronger diclofenac that I'm trying, but that's not really doing much, either.
Who knew that carrying a 30kg sack of potatoes could cause this much pain?
