Just an up date:
I scheduled an appointment with my providor today. I had asked for some anti spasmatics last week and they called me monday morning and they had an appointment this after noon for 3:30pm So I hurried thru my after noon appointments to get there early. After spending a lot of time with me 20 minutes she order a hip exray because I complained of groin pain. She told me to not see the chirpractor until we got the results back. she prescribed muscle relaxers 3 times a day but I will only take them 2 times per day when I am home. I stopped by our grocery store and picked up some salon paus roller of 4%lidocaine and the RX for muscle relaxer. It took for ever to get the x-ray done. wonder if the adjustments were too strong and I have a hip fracture from them, will find out later tomorrow. So I might have 2 things going on. SI joint pain and hip leg pain.
sigh
just what I don't need. I could work today but it was difficult getting dressed, putting my pants on.

Chronic pain is sich a misery in every way. Good that she gave you a muscle relaxer. That was what cause my SI pain to stop.

[bizi]

My SI joint hurts a little it is much better over all.

I keep having thigh pains though.....I still have some pain in my groin, the xray was negative but showed some arthritis.
Thank you for your encouragement!

With hurricane delta in the the gulf it will hit either us or lake charles again!!!!!!
We are staying put. our neighborhood electricity is the same network for a hospital way down the road. so that is why we rarely lose powder.
We have good flood insurance and home owners insurance. large deductibles but we believe in insurance.
we both went to the store and bought ham and cheese and bread and alcohol so we are set.

I just lost a long post.
anyway We survived the storm, i was quite nervous about staying behind. 75 mile an hour winds from what I read on face book. Jeff likes to go out side under the patio cover and watch the trees bend and listen to the wind howl. We had many limbs and twigs/leaves to rake up today.
Last night our neighbors dog got lose, they had part of the fence blown down. and jeff tried to get the dog but he was afraid of him so jeff went back inside. They finally got the dog back in.
This morning the big limbs were gone....we asked our neighbors and they had pulled them up to their yard waste pile as a thank you for jeff trying to get the dog. That was so sweet of them.
We never lost power due to our electric grid is the same one that the hospital runs on a few miles away, we only heard one transformer blow up near by.....
any way hurricane season ends nov 31st, 6 more weeks. It has been an active season.
Hurricane laura hurt lake charles badly2 weeks ago. I am sure they were effected by this storm too.
We ate and drank alot during those 3 hours of stormy weather.
thanks for your well wishes.

Thanks for the update, bizi I'm so glad to hear that you're well and safe! (Our fire season ends in November, too. If only we had some of your rain. It's beyond ironic.)

I'm happy that the dog was caught - and what kind neighbors! Having nice neighbors makes life so much easier.

thanks Beth!
my thigh hurts above my knee, don't know why????
I have to do laundry today going to the laundry matt.

jeff is going to do it at home and just put a towel down to soak

up the water when it leaks.
the repair guy comes in a week or so.
some how I forgot to pay the state taxes.
It is over $1,000 with penalties interest etc.
sigh
got up late today 10;30kept getting up to go pee. at 3 am I took a remeron sleeping pill.
I think it helped.
I really don't want to be taking that as it is so addictive.
I hope you have a nice day.

Hugs. Hoping all goes well for you. Sending supportive thoughts your way.

I, too, hope all goes well, bizi. Keep us posted.

I hope it goes well Bizi

I feel pretty confident. just want to get the test over with. I canceled all of my appointments for tomorrow, except for my therapist appointment at 3pm.
my spinal tap is for 10 am supposed to lay flat for 2-4 hours after the test.
So I did not want to worry about seeing clients. A side effect is a headache. It could last 5 days, laying down gets rid of it. So I should be able to sleep.
Thanks for the well wishes.
