A couple of days have passed.
I am now on some MEGA DOSES of Prednisone for a few days followed by some smaller ones tapering off.
Hoping that will help relieve some inflammation of the sciatic nerve. That would be good....
I cannot drive my car without having searing, shooting pain pulsating down my left leg, thru my calf muscle and into ankle as well. Excruciating...
Yet, I can STAND UP fine without that. So sitting is a real problem...
I slept last night. First time in days. That was good.
I am taking a few minutes to read board and give you an update. I tried to go to Columbus this morning. I got about a mile down the road and turned around and came back. Too much sciatica. Can;t sit in car a couple hours to get to Columbus and see my clients there. Maybe Monday!
Start therapy today. Can hardly wait.. If this doesn't show some immediate improvement I will end it faster than it started. Waste of my time and money. I'll try for three sessions and do the exercises at home faithfully. If no change, then this is over.
For those of you with CRAPPY insurance, a tip. Ask for the cash price and not turn claim into insurance, especially if you are going to pay for it anyway because of high deductible. Your bill will be LESS than if they run it thru your insurance.
O.k. I have used up my alotted time of sitting and must get up now. Check back in later hopefully.
Blessings to you this day the Lord has made! Rejoice and be GLAD in it!
