Happy April

Its Tuesday and April Fools Day. The sun is shining and the lawn crew is here starting their spring cleanup, etc. I mentioned in my last post that my back was out. Yesterday was my doctor appointment and he gave me muscle relaxers and I took the first dose last night before going to bed. I don't really think they made much difference and I'm still in a lot of pain today. It all might be due mostly to going out yesterday. I had so much trouble getting in and out of the car, the whole dr appointment and then bloodwork. So, today I'm taking another day to just relax and hope I'll be good as new by tomorrow. Last night we had some severe thunderstorms which lasted for more than 3 hours. Thankfully we didn't lose power. Hope you're having a good day and something to smile about

I hope your back gets better soon. You may need something in addition to a muscle relaxer for the pain. Luckily, I haven't thrown mine out recently. Take care!

@Marilynda1225 Do you have any lavendar, that is a natural sedative, you could spray some in the room to help you doze off easier.

I'm sorry you're still in pain. and hope you start feeling better soon. I'm glad you didn't lose power during the storm last night. I was given muscle relaxants and took Extra Strength Tylenol on top of them... It didn't stop all the pain but it sure eased it a lot.

@Marilynda1225 Muscle relaxers don't do much for the actual pain. I hope you're taking some pain reliever with your muscle relaxers now.

I'm feeling a bit better and probably do need something in addition to the muscle relaxers.

I've had a bad back for many years and it just flares up now and then. I just feel even worse that so much falls on my daughter to do that I can't until I feel better.

It's starting to feel better but I still have to be careful and not overdo it.

The muscle relaxer might take some time to kick in. Hope you find relief soon.
