Lola's pinched nerve!



I have been having some really bad lower back pains,so I went to see the doctor last Thursday,who prescribed steroids....and since Monday,the pain has become unbearable,and Vincent has found me lying on the floor,screaming in pain.....so today we went back to the doctor,because by now,I could not even feel my leg anymore,and I kept thinking I only had one leg....( I had taken some vicodin,left over from last year...so maybe I was hallucinating!....)

Anyway,the lovely doctor said everything was "fine"...I had plenty of movement in my leg,and I had a strong leg (Ha...that is always a good thing!) and not feeling my leg,was a symptom of a pinched nerve in my back...so he send me home with another dose of steroids,more vicodin (which I only take when I am lying on the floor in pain,which is rare!) and tomorrow,I am still going for my MRI at the hospital....

As soon as we got home,and I swallowed my dose of steroids,I actually felt better,managed to take a shower,and do a crossword puzzle!....
