Beading and Back Pain
I love to bead. And this very absorbing hobby/business makes me forget to get up. This must be the reason why I got such horrible pain which I came to know is an attack of the Sciatica monster.Last winter and early spring my walking and exercise routine slacked. In early June I felt some tingling in my legs and moderate pain. Pain started to escalate and within few days and weeks my life is changed. Now I have excruciating pain in the morning to get up to go to the bathroom (9/10 in pain scale. I could not sit at all. My pain runs through my buttocks and back of the thighs. Jewelry making had to stop. My only relief is I can lie down on my back or tummy- no problem. Pain killers and nerve medicines did not do much good. MRI result shows I have degenerated hernia. Took an epidural. Feeling better for the last three days. Your site has given me lots of knowledge to fight this monster. I am walking very slowly and doing some stretching exercises. Thank you for this valuable info. Thank you. - Dita
