back update
9 November 2005 01:36See what I meant about sleep schedule all messed up? Ah well, I'll pass out soon. Last night I passed out in bed watching londo play video games... he apparently took my glasses off for me and covered me with blankets. :) He is being very wonderful throughout all of this, with me being pretty pathetic and having him bring me food and drink and anything else I want.
Anyway. Managed to get in to see a chriopractor today (found out it was covered by insurance, yay $10 copay!) I am probably dealing with an irritated if not pinched nerve due to pelvis and vertebrae locked in unfortunate positions AND some disks being a little compressed the wrong way. Bleh. She hooked me up to an electro-stimulation machine thingy for a while, which was all tingly, with ice on top of that to calm down the area. Then I had to really painfully contort myself in a few positions so that she could 'crack' some areas. Assumedly my legs are lined up again, now. Anyway, I was told that I wasn't going to feel immediately better and that I might even feel worse afterwards, which was definitely the truth. I could barely get home. :( But I've spent all day on my back again, and it's feeling better.
I'm going for more massage on Thursday, and then back to the chriopractor on Saturday morning. I don't know if I'll feel able to go to work in the morning but I hope so; this is unpaid absence :( I certainly hope I'm able to go to Crossroads this weekend! Cross your fingers for me.
Okay, have sat long enough. Back to bed now.
