I can't control how anemia makes me feel . I can't completely control sciatica pain. I can control what I eat. Last thing I need is to eat crappy food and feel worse. So happy I'm at least in control of that. No exercise is hard for me. I'm going to my first physical therapy session this morning for my bulged disc. Really hope to get some relief and kinda hoping for a safe workout? ? We'll see . On a side note, I take muscle relaxer at night for my back. It helps me sleep but I wake gasping for air! Hate it!! I don't need my throat relaxed :/ scares me, really don't want to take meds anymore.

I feel your pain. I've had 5 back surgeries. And 3 neck surgeries. I have degenerative disc disease. I did have a procedure back in August of last year where they go and burn the nerve ending of the sciatic nerve and it really has helped. So you might want to check on that. It is supposed to last three to five years. I hope you get to feeling better.

Was basically just an evaluation today at therapy. Only physical thing I did was a 6 minute walk to see how I felt afterwards. Basically my back was sore but about 2 minutes in I was getting light headed which bothered me more than anything. So frustrating. Next p.t. appointment is Tuesday. Curious what she'll have me do.....

Hoping you find healing relief soon. I didn't get along well with muscle relaxers either - maybe your doc can give you something else?
