Oomph

My lumbar feels awful. When I breathe deep my lumbar crunches. I am so hungry and I've got a fresh brewed pot of coffee in the kitchen. I had some coffee at about 6am today but it was cold, which I prefer. I can add heat to coffee. I can't remove hot from my coffee without changing the integrity of the original brew.
I need to eat.
*After I started this post I wandered to my kitchen for coffee. Ah yes, the elixir of the God's plaything. Pauley made a pot of butterscotch toffee flavored coffee mixed with blueberry crumble flavored coffee. Oh ho I'm doing big flavors right out the gate! Then I mixed it with butterscotch syrup and lavender syrup. It's surprisingly good!
My next coffee adventure will be chocolate and cherries!
My back is not doing very well. I've been mostly sitting on my couch and if I need food or drinks or I need to wee I scurry like a little goblin.

Today was fun but I was in a considerable amount of pain

We went to the curiosities and oddities expo in Detroit today. I managed to last 4 hours. I didn't buy anything. I got an onion smash burger for lunch. It was the first burger I've had in over 4 years!
I was so proud of myself for pushing through the pain and using my walker when I needed to sit down. Pauley said she's proud of me too. And my QPP said I did good. I kinda didn't have any order to my chaos. I just sorta drifted from vendor to vendor. I saw plenty of really neat things but nothing to bring home with me.
I was worried about ruining Pauleys time by needing to sit so much. She said it was self care and there's nothing wrong with needing to stop and breathe. My QPP wanted to go at a different pace so we split up and did our own thing. That way he didn't have to slow down and worry about me.
When we got home Pauley heated up a Colby Jack cheese stick for me. We talked about how well I did today. I know I would have done better if I had gotten the cortisone injections yesterday. The toradol shot didn't help. But the way I walk with my rollater, I push down on the handlebars to take the weight off my hips. My arms are very sore.
I was so overheating at the expo. Sweat was pouring off my head and face. Pauley noticed and said she was worried about me being dehydrated so she refilled my bottle from the drinking fountain.
I haven't had any coffee yet today. I don't have any spoons after the expo. I'm exhausted. I was thinking about just taking 3 hydroxyzine and laying down to meditate for a bit.
We're gonna have Mediterranean salmon with cheesy broccoli for dinner tonight.
Overall today was ok. Not as good as I had hoped but I had fun.

I had a boring day and it was amazing

No hip pain. No back pain, my legs didn't hurt... And I didn't have a migraine until just about 15 minutes ago so I took my meds. I wish I had a friend who could massage my neck and shoulders.
Lately the worst of the pain is right behind my eyes and in the socket. When I apply pressure to my eyes the pain goes away.
Ooooh my glasses left Chicago this morning! I'm really excited. I can't wait to show off my fancy new eyeballs!

Today's appointment

So apparently my BP and HR were very high and my nurse has been tracking it. She wants to get an updated list of my meds. Luckily Pauley has a spreadsheet of my meds, doctors, and procedures. I'll have her email my nurse.
The invega trinza injection hurts like hell and she kept apologizing. For the price of having 3 months with no symptoms I'm happy. I haven't heard voices in over 7 months. And I haven't wanted to kill myself in over 6 years.
If I had a car I'd try to become a peer support specialist. I've been told by many healthcare professionals that I would really do good work and I'm really good at listening and helping talk out solutions.
The one thing that she mentioned is coffee raises BP and HR which I knew. I probably drink maybe 30-40 oz per day. But I haven't had any coffee yet today.
I didn't bring my walker to my appointment. I was out of breath and gasping by the time I got up the stairs to the 2nd floor where I live. It's just 17 steps but I have so much going on with my health. It might as well been a mile.
I am craving fried green tomatoes and fried okra and fried cabbage with bacon and OMG fried smashed plantains! Southern/Jamaican food makes my soul happy.
My arm is gonna be achy for a few days. Nowhere near the pain I get in my hips.

I'm cranky

The intensity of the pain is just ridiculous. It's impossible to move without feeling like my legs are being ripped off. I sat here and cried while Pauley was in the kitchen. I don't want her to worry so I'm doing my damnest to hide it. She's burnt out and I know she doesn't have any spoons to help me. I'm trying to do my best to take care of myself.
But it's effecting my mood. I'm really not ok.
I just want to sit swaddled in my blankie with my cow and I want smile potatoes and bacon and scrambled eggs. And a donut.

BackPain 3w

Rough day

Yesterday my new pain management doctor wanted to see my range of motion in my hips. She had me lay down and she bent my right leg. OMG the pain spiked to 9. She apologized for hurting me but I said she needs to see how bad it gets.
This morning I woke up in serious pain. My lumbar feels like I got kicked. My right hip really hurts. But the X-rays showed us why my right side hurts so much. The ball socket is bone on bone. It's new since September of 2022.
Thankfully I have Pauley. She gave me a Norco and she put some CBD cream on my back. Right now pain is at 6.
My fasting BG was about 152. I need to eat something but I don't want to get off my bed. I'm craving a grilled cheese sandwich with some sweet potato red pepper soup.

Today

We just got done with today's appointment with the pain management clinic. I'm getting cortisone injections on July 11th. The doctor was very nice and helpful. Everyone here has been very accepting and called me Nox.
My doctor wanted to check my range of motion. I laid on my back and she bent my right knee up and OMG the pain was immediate, spiked to 9. Then she extended my leg up straight and I started crying cuz the pain was just so intense. She apologized but I said it's fine cuz she needs to see how bad it is. I was smart and only took one tramadol before we left.
We did x-rays of my hips and lumbar. We found out my right hip socket has narrowed so much that now it's bone on bone. I'm gonna have an MRI of my lumbar and hips next month.
It stormed really bad after my appointment so we stayed in the waiting room. Pauley had to do some remote work cuz her client lost power from the storm. She actually went in to the office instead of coming home with me. She got home by about 920pm.

Sigh.. just another high pain day

I had a really bad migraine when I woke up but I took my meds and 3 hours ago it went away. My right hip still hurts but not as bad as this morning. My tummy hurts so bad.
I ate 2 buttered cheesy English muffins for lunch and then at 430pm I had some cheesy broccoli.
I need to wake up Pauley for some CBD cream on my back.
§ wanders to wake her up...she mumbled and I think went back to sleep §

Omfg my poor head

I woke up with a really bad migraine and my right hip is trashed. Pauley is asleep so I took what's in my meds box on my bed. 2 tramadol and an eletriptan. I need her to put some CBD cream on my neck. Lately my meds haven't been helping my hips. I feel miserable.

BackPain 2mo

My everything hurts except for the back of my head

The back of my head is still completely numb. I wonder how long it will last. My eyes are very sore from the vision problems I have. My back is very ouchy. My hips are stiff and sore. Pauley just gave me a Norco.

I'm starting to think maybe Saturday isn't Free comic book day. None of my local shops have posted about it. I'm very disappointed. I was excited to introduce my darling stupidhead Pauley to the shop. It's lots of fun.

I just remembered steroids increase BG temporarily. Usually for about a day at most. That explains why my BG went to insane levels.
