It got really bad last night. And get this I dont get paid for being off work, I only have 2 days vacation left and I am using those but because I got hurt at work short term or long term dissability will not cover it and workers comp wont pay me until I've been off for 7 days. So now i'm losing money. I'm broke as it is, I have hardly any food in my house, last night Billy picked me up some pizza rolls so I have something to eat while i'm at home. I dont know how we are going to make it with the bills we have and me not working. I will have to go back on monday even if the doctor says not to. I dont have a choice. Anyways I needed to vent. |
Ashley,
Have you tried a heating pad and something like Ben-gay or Apercreme?
I wrenched my back a few months ago and I don't even know what I did, but I woke up and I could barely move! After using the creme for a few days on the sore area, it really helped!
I hope you are feeling better!
