    Hi Ash

    Let's hope the disc settles back into place....one of mine did several times before it, and another 'friend' along with a slight fracture forced surgery. I did loose feeling in one leg totally. It was scary you are right, but I hope you are lucky.

    My fingers are crossed for you and yes go and rest :wink:

    love

    Hi Ash
    Just take it easy
    They tell you to go to A&E if you get pain and numbness in you leg just as a precaution just in case the disc protrudes any more and gets trapped I think as you are resting you will be ok
    Just don't try to do anything if the pain eases its probably the analgesia working
    Hope you feel better soon

    Still not better, back pain is still really bad and now most of my joints have joined in, probably because I'm due my infusion tomorrow which I hope helps things a lot. I have a medical assessment at my university in 2 week’s time which I NEED to pass to be able to resume my studies, really can’t afford to take another year off mentally and financially. Going to try and have a word with my doctor tomorrow while having my infusion to have a quick chat about what alternative treatment is available to me as I can't see this going away on its own.

    I hope tomorrow's infusion helps and I hope you manage to sort something out about your studies. The stress won't help at all.
    If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.
