So much Pain

[LadyVeeHerrera]

I threw my back out on Friday, so i've been in a lot of pain all weekend. I have an exaggerated curve in my lower back and have had 5 pregnancies with 5 epidurals... all that combined has produced some serious nerve damage in my lower back.

I went to bend over and it felt like something snapped... so the doctors told me that I pulled some ligaments along with the muscular pain.  Anyways, I'm getting ready to schedule my MRI soon...

Ladies, I'm just thankful to the Lord that I'm being healed at this time and He has given me a lighter perspective to my otherwise horrible situation.  I'm thankful for His grace and His mercy on me.  Please pray for me during this time as I hope to get back into full swing real soon.

Yea, usually heat works but I tell you... Nothing was working for me... they gave me some nice painkillers that slightly numbed it a little, but it made me really loopy.  Either way, i'm doing a little better than I was yesterday, so praise God that I'm healing.  Thank you for writing me.  : )
