I'm typing this sitting rather stiffly on a chair having woken up this morning with a back that felt as though it was going to go into spasm at any moment. I went to work and had a very uncomfortable day, trying to get into a comfortable position! Unfortunately my osteopath was unwell and not able to see me today, i get this back pain about every 2/3 years but when it arrives it makes you realise how dependent you are on your back.
All of a sudden even the simplist of things become feats of endurance, like getting dressed and undressed and even sitting down and standing up!
Anyway, i've managed to book in to see one of Matt's school friends who is now a qualified osteopath tomorrow afternoon so i hope he can begin to ease the pain. I'm not a great pill taker and try if at all possible to avoid taking drugs, but i may have to resort to ibuprofen or something similar if this continues.
I'm fortunate in having a higher than average pain threshold, hence the no injections at the dentists, with a couple of exceptions, but that's another story!
Roll on tomorrow afternoon. The buddhist philosophy of 'be in the moment' is wearing thin at the present!
