well,.... today was anotha day..
lately my backs been killin me, its been giving me like these shooting pains up and down my spine, mostly in the neck area, i was just dealin with it, but lately they have been spreading to my upper legs and arms... so leave it to the hypocondriat....(did i spell that even close) ...... in me to think i was getting ready to have a heart attack and die.
good news is, im not having a heart attack... bad news is.. theres a problem with two plates i had to have put in my back several years ago.. one is up near my neck and one is down near my tail bone... and there both pinching nerves.
ones some symatic nerve or whatever and i forget the other name.. sposed to be pretty important things. so i have to go to this physical therapy bullshit to see if that helps... which it better.
the really bad part is that they wanted tp perscribe me oxycottons for my back. this is a very bad thing. for those who dont know, im a recovering addict... manages to get almost 2 years clean under my belt now.. oxycottons are basically pilled heroin. so i turned down the pain meds for now, and said id deal.. its really not all that bad i suppose... the thing that scares me is if i have to get surgery... denying the meds wont be an option....
ill just have to pray and realize god is testin me i suppose.
otherwise i had a great day LOL...
good mood as usual, no sense in worryin about the inevitable!!

im sorry to hear about your back.
Tell the docs you don't want oxycotin if you have to have surgery. They have other meds that are not as addictive... they were used for years before oxy became the pill of choice... and a good doc will understand where you're coming from. Feel better though!
