Holy fuck. I tried to go feed the chickens and ended up on the ground screaming. I’ve never had it this bad before. Not even close. I literally cannot move without screaming.
 
Brokenllink, I've been there, to the point I couldn't breathe and had to be taken to the ER.

I don't do well with opiates, but that's what they gave me, it made the pain go away but it made my heart slow down so much I passed out a few times when trying to get up. Scared the hell out of my wife.

Better days are ahead, just get through, and be easy on yourself.

Sometimes all you can do is just lay there and let shit settle, for way way longer than you would like.
 
In my past experience all I could do is lay on the floor with a pillow and wait for it to release. : |
 
I lived thru a naturally fusing of my lower back discs and have been where you are Mike.

An electronic stim machine will provide some relief, but does not fix anything.

Muscle relaxants and hot bath with Epsom salts. The muscles are all in freak out mode and they need to chill. Hard to do.

The opiates let me get some movement and very light stretching done with a heating pad back in the day, but are now avoided. However.. sometimes they are needed.
 
I just popped a norco. They gave me some for my implant but I also hate opiates so avoid them like the plague. I have gabapentin (prescribed for the same thing in my neck). This all stems from a really horrible mtn bike crash in college where I flew off a cliff and compressed four vertebrae (two in my neck, two in my lower back). The neck one used to be the problem but once I stopped commuting on a motorcycle, that went away. Haven't had to get an epidural in my neck in years now. But because I sit at a desk all day now instead of hiking streams, the lower back has gotten worse.

I think i might go smoke a fatty with some THCA powder sprinkled on top. If that and the norco doesn't do it, I might end up in the ER. I almost asked to go their earlier, but I'm not calling a fucking ambulance and I don't think I can get in a car right now.

Oh man, I have never had any such injury but I have thrown out my back but nothing like yours.

Even my experience has been miserable so I can't imagine what you are going through.

Best of luck to you.
 
Lol
When I went to the ER I crawled into the back seat of a car on all fours and stayed on all fours like a dog in the backseat because I couldn't do anything else.

Fuuuuuuuu

Better days ahead
 
Ya'll got me worried for my future. Back is mostly fine, but it gets irritated here and there and will make crunching noises when move my hips. I suspect I have bad back pain in my future.
 
Thanks melissa. The norco weed combo is taking effect. Getting a nice flat spot on the floor ready to spend the day gf is going to get some salonpas pads and try and find a heating pad. I might even have one here somewhere.
 
@Brokenlink go to the ER sooner rather than later. I volunteered in one for years. Sunday nights are notoriously busy because everyone gets a little hurt, parties all weekend anyway then realizes that was not a good idea.

I hope you feel better.

I think I’ll be ok if I can get through today. I’ll call the doctor tomorrow and see if I can get some acupuncture or something.

You know better than me because it’s your body. I do hope you feel better. I dislike hurting.
