Fuck m8. The back is the ultimate dibilitator. I feel for you... unfortunately it is only time rest and suffering that slowly brings us back from these shitty moments. Hey m feeling for you!
Cheers m8. I know you understand, I remember you telling me about your back/spinal issues... and you're absolutely right. Time, rest and bucket of pain is the only way through lol. I know I've got about a month of this to go. I'm just gonna get bollocksed on pain killers like last time. I know how to treat them with respect and how to come off them. I don't like that I have to take them but I need to be able to at least sit on a chair at my desk to write etc.
Think it might be partiko blogging from my phone & bed for the next few days tho.
Thanks for your comment and support m8. It is appreciated 🙂
Oh man - that sounds awful. And it's so much more frustrating when one condition gets in the way of recovery from another condition :-/ Like you're in an impossible never-ending loop. I hope you find the strength to believe there will be solutions for you and everything someday <3 Part of the recovery process is staying optimistic - but I know that's super hard.
Thanks for the virtual hugs... I sure do need them at the moment.
I am generally an optimistic person in life but this has knocked me for six if I'm honest.

I think this is the thing that has slammed me beyond the point where I can be hopeful short term as I had an appointment to see the specialist dietitian on the 26th of this month. That appointment was to start the elemental diet' but It's very unlikely I'll be mobile enough, or un-drugged enough to proceed with that treatment. I had hopes before this of potentially being well again by this summer, can't see it now as it's 2 months minimum between appointments.
Like you're in an impossible never-ending loop.
Yep, or knocking your head against a brick wall. But I know you know all about these frustrations and having to deal with pain.
Thanks again for the understanding. once I've got something to manage the pain I'll throw all this frustration into my writing. And also, I'll have more time to promote steem on twitter, just gonna have to change my Seven77 seven push ups a day to seven of something less physical... Like eye brow waggling... Or seven poetic #steem tag lines 😉
Oh man that sounds rough as hell, sorry to hear you're laid up.
I guess you've got no choice other than to stick with the pain killers. It sounds like the only rational choice until the back clears up and then on with the dietary therapy.
Here's hoping you're (literally) back on your feet as soon as!
Yeah, it is as they say here in Liverpool... an absolute ball ache. Or should that be back ache lol
Thanks for the kind words and support Karl. It means a lot these things can just make you feel so isolated. Suppose we've hit on one of the benefits of online community. The pain killers are indeed the only choice when the pain is this severe. I got them earlier and can at least sleep now as well as shuffle about the flat without being in complete agony.
I went through this in September of 2017 so I know exactly what to expect. Gotta make sure to contact the dietitian and postpone the diet rather than forgetting and just losing the referral. Ha ha, that is number one job foir tomorrow before I fall down the 'cotton wool' rabbit hole of pain meds.
Glad you're dosed upped and pain free (well sort of if you now what I mean), I'm sure that, a bit of patience and Steem will see you through to other side!
I guess it's just a matter of being patient and focussing on what you can do with these things.
I hope that you will get better soon @raj808 it is just sad that you are dealing with backpain, no wonder you are quite sympathetic to me because you are experiencing a similar burden to your health.
May God heal you Sir soon.

I'm 100% sympethetic to your illness m8m but you have so much more to deal with than anyone I've seen on this platform. But a problem shared is a problem halved and I do understand the feeling of being bed bound for weeks and not being able to do everyday activities etc.
But as I said, it is nothing compared to what you endure. Massive respect to you my friend and thank you for the well wishes. I always keep my fingers crossed for you to have more good days than bad :)
Yes you are right @raj808 because not even in my nightmares what happened to my body is just inconceivable for me and yet it is a reality I have to live with and fight with everyday with my future with great uncertainty but I know there is more probability that I will get defeated by all these medical complications in the future.
I'm not religious m8, but despite not being a believer... I still pray for a miracle for you cryptopie.
I just got pain meds today so my pain isn't as excruciating as it was the last two days. Really glad about that as it means I can sleep for the first time in 24 hours. Might be napping for a while 😉
I cannot imagine the pain you are going thru right now. It is a good thing to find ways to keep your mind off things. This too shall pass my friend, things happen for a reason and you will get thru this.
Yeah it's pretty bad right now but I got meds at last. The only problem is that the meds knock me out. I'm wandering about the apartment in a dream world lol, even a pint mug of coffee isn't snapping me out of it 🤣
Still, I'm getting a food vlog edited today that I filmed last week and the pain isn't as bad on these meds.
Yeah, I guess so. I'm a little more positive now I have pain killers. Before that I couldn't even walk. Ha ha, pain is a four letter word... indeed, much like a few others I won't mention but was saying a lot a few days ago before I got meds 😉

Oooo...pain is a four letter word ♥ So sorry @raj808 ! What doesn't kill you means you're still alive :)
