Health chaos, emotionally drained.

Hie there all, Angie and Greg!!!
For quite sometime I have been unable to post any thing of my own or write anything in your posts. I am quite unwell and having a bad phase in my life. I am having trouble with my spine and life's become a hell for me due to the pain and the emotional and mental pain too. I am going for a physiotherapy and yoga classes but the doc has said that if that doesn't work they would have to make a surgery for keeping my spine and the nerves in place with 50% chance of success.

So I am emotionally drained for now and hence having trouble keeping pace with my normal life and YLF. But one good thing that has happened to me in all this chaos is my boyfriend who was away for a year for his organisation's work in Qatar has come for a holiday for one month and I am so glad he is here with me at this moment when nothing is going right for me healthwise.

Dear gals, I need your support at this moment and am resolving to get cured by physiotherapy only. I really dread one more surgery after having two surgeries already.

Bye and love you all. Will be back soon in YLF full time.

Here's wishing you a speedy recovery. If you do end up having surgery, I hope it's a resounding success. There's nothing worse than back pain, I don't think.

I'm so sorry! I know very well how debilitating back injuries can be, because my mom has two herniated discs in her neck, and my daughter's best friend's mother has the same problem with her lower back. Both declined surgery and are now wishing they had done it. My mom is now too old/infirm to attempt surgery, but the friend's mom is still considering it. I wish you the best of luck and a happy outcome. Here's hoping the physio works. *hugs*

Dear Fashionista, I'm sending you love and hugs and hope the less-invasive physiotherapy helps your painful condition. If you decide surgery is necessary, may it go well and give you the relief you need.

It's so good to hear your bf is back to be with you and that must be comforting. Would a pain clinic be of any help or any type of shots to alleviate the pain?

Thinking of you and we're always here for you.

I am sooo sorry to hear this. I really hope that physio works. I have a herniated disc in my neck that puts pressure on my spinal chord ( going back 10 years ) and I have almost no problem with it after undergoing some intense physio. The pain is hell and you feel as if you are going to lose your mind. Every once in a while I would sleep in a neck brace and that helped me quite a bit.

Hang in there and try to tell yourself that it will get better. Surgery is a coin flip. Stay committed to your exercise program, it really does help allieviate pain !!! Keep us updated.
