@GezzaP So glad you got to chiro. Dont know what else you can do! I'm so sorry you are in so much pain. I've found chiro only works for a while and the pain comes back. You may have more luck with the acupuncturist. I hope you can manage today its a darn nuisance. I know how difficult it is. Please be patient with yourself. I know its almost impossible to find a comfortable spot and moving around is a luxury you dont have right now. When backs play up we realise how much we take mobility for granted, myself included. Living in the inbetweens can be agony. I've been there many times ❤️
Pieces of coriander got wrapped around my food processor bl@de the other day and stopped it spinning. The motor blew today. Had to buy a new food processor from Kmart today in addition to the dress I bought yesterday. Did a Paypal pay in 4 for the food processor. Wish I never bought the dress yesterday...oh well.
I'll save the parts of the old one in case anything of the new one breaks. I can use the container, lid and bl@des and just throw out the motor that went bung. I did that with my juice extractor its a great way to save money stocking upon old parts that are interchangeable with the same model.
Got to clean the kitchen today its a mess

@SmilingGecko I am in agony. Put ice on back again. Can take more pain killers in an hour. Managed to check letter box but bin not emptied yet. Sorry about your blender and that you had to buy a replacement. I’ve got a big bill due tomorrow that will hurt my bank balance a lot. Struggled to get lunch. I was very hungry. Still hungry but can’t manage to get anything else. My kitchen needs cleaning too, but I can’t do it. Helper coming tomorrow. Yours in agony. Hope you are ok.

@GezzaP Oh you poor thing. Dont worry about cleaning up for now. Everything has its place. I know you feel stuck. Did you see the audio I shared on back pain. People have got relief. Its like a Tens Machine but audio format. Dont want to make suggestions you dont want to read in your current state of mind and your unique personal preferences but people are not in pain with it. Its a new audio. I did not see it until yesterday but will use it in future if I have back pain. Would always go to a chiro but this works brilliantly with pain apparently.

Dearest @SmilingGecko
i feel amazing actually
@AuntGlow @ENKELI @SmilingGecko @TAB @StuF @GezzaP @Cuddlebear
i feel : what has 40 years of therapy given me?
I am worthwhile. That means if I stay very vulnerable and don’t change that : I want to stop needing to justify myself

I’m miserable @SmilingGecko . I deleted the audio sorry. Just feeling sorry for myself. Took some more pain killers at 2. Not sure how I can take my shoes off. Managed to bring bin in was really hard. Oh well going to try to take my shoes off.

I know you are not feeling the best right now @GezzaP Theres not much I can say about it unfortunately. I just realise it takes a while for backs to re-adjust, well in my case it does normally. The last lot of back pain I had was quite severe. I was in the chiro's and he put a machine all over my back to settle my nervous system or something and it was really nice but within half an hour I was back where I started. It took me a month to right my back. You will get your mojo on again, it just takes a while.
Anyway I've been on the rebounder and I clocked 10 minutes today jumping up and down. Its taken me a month to get to that point. I'm getting more physically fit rebounding compared to just walking. I've lost some weight [Limited Detailed Descriptions - edited by moderator] and can fit into my trousers again. Just got to keep at it. Its easy to do. My lymph must have been really clogged. I've cleaned my kitchen today, just got a little more to do tomorrow

Thats good @PeppyPatti glad you are doing well sounds like youve derived a lot of value from psychotherapy. I had in-laws that were psychotherapists. Both sister-in-laws! I used to have interesting convos about astrology and psychoanalytic theory with one of them.

I know you can’t do anything @SmilingGecko . I just have to grin and bear it. Got my shoes and socks off easier than I expected. It was really hard to put them on this morning. Got ice on my back again. Scared of going to bed tonight as I fear I’ll have spasms again. Glad you have done well on rebounder and can get trousers on. Keep it up. I’m doing Spanish lessons to distract myself.
