I Have Chronic Back Pain
...twenty-four/seven, but it's always in the same lower-back areas, can be set off by as little as bending down to put on stockings or slip on a pair of shoes, and the pain is often a mofo. Sharp, burning, tearing feeling, like "yeowww!" And several times during the year it's SO damn bad - a "10" :'( - that i can hardly move, having to use my arms to lift my legs off the bed or to steady myself into bed. And shoes or stockings? Fuhggeddabowdit! And absolutely the only relief other than "days" is a very good chiropractor - one of which I have, thank goodness & God bless him. (He's a big guy now, but he was just a little squirt when his dear sister and I were high school classmates.)
