Guest guest Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 Good morning everyone, I awoke on Saturday with severe pain to both sides of my lumbar. I couldn't sit up straight, nor walk erect. My lower back was/and is killing me. My pain pills aren't working to well. I'm taking Flexaril 20 MG.'s,for muscle tightness and Vicodin HP every four hours. When I stand, my lumbar and mid back put me in so much pain, I've got to sit or lay down. Ice, nor heat helps, not even the lidoderm patch. I'm afraid I may need another operation there, I hope not. But, I'm at my wits end!!I don't know what to do. I was hoping I could last until next year when I'm put back on workman's compensation. I lost it when I took the Hotels lawyers offer back in 2002. Fortunately for me, the judge increased my payments to $150.00 per week,rather than the $115.00 per week or else I'd have to wait another ten years! I may just take a short walk with two canes. I've got to get used to it sooner than I expect, but, you know, nothing ever works out as per my plans. lol Be safe, be happy, be well as can be.
