This morning I was trying to bring a large delivery from Fed Ex into house and in the process, I injured my back...doctor thinks I have compression fracture. Have CT scan tomorrow and had x-ray earlier today. I am great pain, but do have some pain meds to ease my suffering....so just wanted to warn everyone I might not be my usual, sweet, vivacious self.....I might be a little more bitchy so hope you understand any comments from this day forward (until further notice) may be made under the influence so I will probably not be saying much for a time.
My son brought in box and said it weighed over 100 lbs so it was stupid of me to try to lift it....
Yeah, it was stupid. I'm lucky I didn't give myself a hernia or break something last year when I lifted two heavy boxes of cans I brought into work for the MLK food drive.
Well, yes you were lucky, but your bones are probably not as thin as mine (another perk of growing old).....but yes, we get careless when lifting.
It is official...doc just called and it is a compression fracture of back..it so dang painful......even more than you 'pain in the ass' farts here on Mock....
