I hurt my back today. I have no idea how. I was putting some things in the washer and tried to stand up and it hurt so badly I barely could move. It felt like a kidney stone but it was on both sides so that isn't the problem. My mom was there and was really worried because I have a high pain tolerance and she says I never complain of pain, much less struggle to move because of it. It hurt so badly at first. After some ibuprofen and heat/ice it's a lot better although I'm moving around slowly. I just don't understand what happened. If it's not better tomorrow I'm going to go to urgent care. I don't want to; my meds are so complicated and it can be hard to convince doctors new to me that they have to check interactions carefully. But I don't want to be unable to enjoy Christmas. For now I have vicodin I'm given for migraines and I'm going to take one of those tonight. Hopefully I wake up tomorrow all better.


This is turning out to not be my month physically. Hopefully the hard stuff will end with the month.
