Aging and fear #Age #Aging #fall #balance #ruptureddisc #ChronicPain #Fear
I've started having falls in the last 12 months. Last Tuesday was outside the house. I finally went to urgent care on Friday; they recommended a visit to ER for a CAT scan. Found a flattened L6 disc. No shards which is good. They said their focus is pain management right now
The pain is doable; my focus is not falling again and find exercise for knee strength and total body balance.
I'm also under chemo treatment for lung cancer (3 years since dx)
I have a chronic fear and mistrust of my body. When will that stop?
