NEW RELEASES
I hear the siren call of a heating pad
I put my shoulder out again. Sometimes I think my spine and ribs are assembled from legos and someone has snuck in there and discombobulated them all. I have a perfectly lovely doctor – my primary care physician is also an osteopath, so she puts be back together several times a year.
This time, I don’t know if some of the legos are missing or what, but I’m just not going back together as smoothly as I always hope.
Anyway, the point is – I’m way too sore to sit at a computer tonight. I’m going to take a hot, hot bath with a glass of wine and maybe even a muscle relaxant. I’m going to finish the book I’ve been reading for a week – the great one by Sabrina Jeffries from up in the right hand corner.
I’ll have a good story for you tomorrow. If not, I’ll make something up. Deal?
OMG! I feel your pain! Literally! My shoulder went out week before last! It is horrible! I did heat, ice, Voltaren, and Tylenol. I did so much Tylenol that I got the hangover headache from it!
After I got that sort of under control, my lower back went out, and for the first time ever, I could not drive myself to the dr so Rod had to. I also go to an osteopath. He gave me a muscle relaxant, a pain killer, and the most wonderful patch! It is called Flector Patch, and it is made by the same company that makes Voltaren. Voltaren, which I used for my shoulder pain (it was under my scapula, and was coming from two rotated discs in my thoracic verbebrae.), is a topical gel that really takes the edge off.
My dr looked at my chart and pronounced that I have my December backache, because it had been a year since I last had “the good drugs.”
I hope you start feeling better SOON! Your humor makes my day!
