Hi all
I have had a lot a back pain & I'm having acupuncture at the physio atm.It just doesn't last longer than a day.
So today Im off work in pain & I have been to see my GP.It feels like seeing him was a waste of time all he said was my inflammatory markers are fine so I should keep going with the acupuncture & pain killers to see how things go.Also my weight isn't helping & I should try to exercise.
I cant exercise for my pain I was so frustrated I asked him to consider me for a gastric band ...all he said was oh your not that over weight my goodness what am I supposed to do???
Sorry for the rant I just had to let off some steam

stupid doc that was a waste of your energy.
(((()))) now get your wheat bag and cuddle down and try to nap have you taken pain meds eaten something right put christmas movie on telly and nap be kind to your self you are off work so use the time for your sefl you sound like you need it and lots more ((())) valval0 -
You poor thing, don't mind the rant we all feel like it when we have flare ups. All I can suggest is the same as val, nice warm wheat bag heat snuggle (as I call them!) settle on your bed or settee, put a film on and try and sleep, sleep is the best thing to heal you. And don't worry about work or anything you just rest and get yourself better.0
