Had my shots today. I was supposed to get two on L4, but they gave me two on L5 also. We came right home and I went right to bed. I slept for a couple hours, got up and ate lunch, then settled in my chair for the duration. At 5:30 I decided I should lay down again. I slept until 7:30! I got up, went downstairs, lay down on the couch and fell asleep again. Stan cooked a little supper and now I'm in my chair again. It's 8:54 and I'm ready for bed, but I'm wondering if I'll sleep tonight! Might have to get out the melatonin.
It was a good idea to lay low today! Really can't tell about the pain yet-I think the right side is better, but they didn't do the left side, since it came late to the party. I suppose that will be another session.....
Update-I went back to bed at 9:00 and slept til 4:30. 12 1/2 hours sleep in 24-unreal! I'm alert now, must have been one of the things they stuck in my back. I feel a little better today, but I didn't have the quick relief like I did last time. I'm taking that as a good omen.
I pray that they will work....
ReplyDelete...meanwhile I was gifted a book at Christmas which just started to read.
You HAVE TO get this book, I will even pay for it....PAIN FREE by PETE EGOSCUE. It has changed my entire thinking on body pain!
Oh, that does not sound like fun. I hope the shots control your pain and that you can shake off the drowsiness!
