Great post, glad I read this today!

Congrats!!!

I'll count six months as my next celebration. :)

I missed this. Congratulations!!

bB thank you I'll very carefully give those a try as soon as I'm able, I appreciate you taking the time to post! DD I'm hoping soon as I really truly don't want it to be something worse than I thought. :/ Run been doing ice and heating pad, and definitely will remember to get up properly, don't want to make this worse. Thanks!!

I'd absolutely love to see anything specific if it's not too much trouble. I'm spinning my wheels. :(

NOPE

Thank-You!! ☺

The clinic shipped me in and out the other day saying probably just muscle strain, and prescribed muscle relaxers and stronger ibuprofen. I haven't healed yet and still am unable to take care of anything or move much, and the prescriptions barely touch the pain and discomfort. I wonder if it's just that slow to heal or an xray is in order.

I confess... I'm phobic of wasps, yellow jackets, hornets, and therefore will flail about and run screeching at the site even if it ends up being a bee or a fly. I've also tried to get out of a moving vehicle when one flew in, and ran away from my brother while one was stinging him screaming. I clearly have issues.

Heartbreaking story, also a very strong message. Thank-You for sharing this story and hoping for continuous healing for you.

Hello! I'm fairly new here but so far the support and information here has been awesome! I think everyone here can relate to what you've described in one form or another. Congratulations on your quit!

Nope

Headed to clinic, about to pass out from the pain and no help with my child this evening. It's worse than yesterday. :(

Mother Singing Performing Arts Studying to go back to school Math My degree in undecided at the moment (with job follow-up), my kids taken care of, spiritually in a better place, singing regularly. I love the country.

Thank You!!!

I haven't yet but was actually planning on trying icy hot if the pain doesn't let up soon. Tomorrow is day three of this. :/

Omgoodness!!!!! This is so close to my quit smoking reward I plan on getting and have bookmarked, only it's a full chair back. :D Even more excited now.

I should be seeing one anyway regularly as I have pretty bad scoliosis. However right now the thought of anything touching my back or stretching me makes me cringe with how sharp the pain is. I hate just laying here like a veggie all day. :P

Dang!!! Glad you found some relief, three advil isn't touching the pain for me. Might have to go to doc if it stays this way much longer. Hoping things start looking up for you even more, soon!

It's horrible when you cannot walk, bend, move at all with two small children. I have my boyfriend helping but he has to work soon. I'm wondering how long before I can move again. I hope everyone had a good weekend nonetheless.

Nope

I'm glad you are starting to feel better and things are settling down. Sending positive thoughts!

I take probiotics to help my gut but there is a definite gut/brain connection as far as mental and immune health. I also live on apple cider vinegar, garlic, and only use certain oils to cook with i.e coconut, olive. I use coconut oil and ACV for my skin and it changed it completely. If I get an infection that is mild or a virus I use oregano oil. I take raw whole food organic vitamins made from pure fruits and veggies, and fish oil. I'm a bit of a nut. I destroyed my body through the years and have found ways to naturally restore a balance. Recently however, I had to suck it up and take antibiotics as my lungs and sinuses were too far gone. I'm slowly getting my body back together. :/

...I can tell you I've been there with quite a few things in conjunction with antidepressants years ago. Depending on the type you are taking at any any given time, if you ever have to wean off there are supplements that can help keep your mind clear and your heart from being too heavy, if they are alright with your doctor... even while beginning a new antidepressant. I wish and hope the best for you!
