cabensonAfter a week of trying to sit at my computer only to start having spasms, I finally got the laptop online. So now, I can lay in bed, or in my recliner, and use a notsocrappy dial up connection to reconnect with people. Only problem is that I can't get YIM to install, so unless you have AOL or MSN, I am not chatable at this time.
We have had some weird ass weather lately and that has resulted in some server issues with our cable company (internet-wise). Mrs CB has had to follow my instructions for resetting modems, routers,etc, as I shout them from the bedroom. God, I can't wait until this back thing is better. Which leads me to...
A back update. PT has not helped, in fact, I think that it has caused more inflammation. By some miracle, I was able to get in to see the neurosurgeon tomorrow. Last time, I had to wait 6 weeks. I had an MRI yesterday-agonizing for this claustrophobic gal even tho it was an "open" machine. Both of my PT's and the MRI guy mentioned that scar tissue from my previous surgery may have adhered to a nerve root. This would explain the spasms in my leg and the "phantom" pains I have. Sometimes it feels like I have a slash across the top of my foot, or that the skin on my leg is burning. I am taking some seriously strong Percocet as the Vicoden did nothing. I miss having a glass of wine in the evenings.I also miss cooking...a lot!
