Feelin Pretty Good

It's Friday night and I'm feeling pretty good. For all those with any kind of back pain you will understand what I have been dealing with.

I have tried everything for the past three months to heal my pain. My regular doctor referred me to a specialist in Lancaster (Dr. Masone) and what a relief I am seeing. After an MRI I was found to have some disc issues. Dr. Masone set a course of treatment - the plan was a series of shots in the back to promote healing and reduction of the swelling of the disc.

Today was my first scheduled appointment and I needed a driver so my husband was the lucky one. I ended up getting an epidural (which didn't feel to good and I turned down the offer of drugs) oh well I had the treatment and have behaved all day like I was instructed and I actually am feeling better. So far so good and I will keep the blog updated on my status.

I will not be back to normal in the terms of lifting, moving and doing things that I shouldn't as the good doctor instructed. He reminded me that I have an injury and it takes time to heal, so if you see me doing something that I shouldn't remind me please.
