*snore*

Another day, another bout of waking up ass-early in pain.

Normally, this isn't anything I'd write about, but I was so hoping things would be better by now.

Thursday, I had a minor procedure at the pain docs. I got knocked out for a minute or two, and they jammed a needle into my spine and injected steroids. The procedure went fine. I tend to shake off anesthesia well, so I had no problem walking out of the room on my own two feet and while I recovered, I sat there chatting with the nice woman who did my IV. By the time the evening rolled around, I was nearly crying with pain, as all the pissed off nerves revolted.

Now, three days later, it's back to business as usual. No relief, nothing. Just a whole lot of cranky because I really wanted it to work. *sigh* I knew going in that it was only 50/50 for relief, but damn.

So yeah, that's been my week. And now, I'ma take some drugs and try to nap for a few minutes more.

*hugs* I'm sorry it didn't work out as you wanted.

I know how the being woken up due to pain thing works.

*cuddles* Is the universe not listening to me when I say things are meant to be going your way for a while?

I love you, sweetheart and I hope you got some more sleep.

My mum used to get that done! It's cool that they knock you out for it.

I'm sorry that it hasn't worked ;/

*hugs her gently* Unfortunately, that is how that works. It might work...and it might not. And it sucks hard ass.

Sorry that didn't work out! Hopefully they'll be able to come up with something else.

I'm so sorry it didn't give you any lasting relief, sweetheart. I've been there too... it didn't work for me either.

I hope tomorrow brings a little more light into your life and a whole lot less pain.

*hugs you softly*
