Tell me you are taking anti inflammatories for your back, too! Do you have experience with managing it?

TheSassyAssassin · 23/02/2018 21:26

Yesterday I took whatever anyone had to hand at work...cold & flu medicine, some voltarol and then whatever I had at home. Nope not taken anything today. If not better tomorrow then yes, anti-inflammatory medicine prob the way to go. Am a bit crap at stuff like this and muddle through with whatever I can find...hence the dodgy stuff that made me sick today Blush

Looks like you're in need of a doctor or two sassy. Hopefully one of these will have healing.....um.....hands. Wink

Ooh Einstein! Book me in for an operation please and I won't be needing any anaesthetic thank you!!! Grin

Well since have just eaten an orange and cranberry HCB for breakfast (bloody gorgeous!) & am feeling in a very good mood, yes, we're good Smile

Always take ibuprofen (if you are allowed) at the first sign of back ache. The pain is caused by swelling in the area. Ibuprofen reduces that, so stops it getting worse.

Trust me, I'm a veteran of slipped disc, sciatica, bruised coccyx etc. I used to avoid taking it until I was desperate, then someone explained. Now I know a tablet in time saves nine!

TheSassyAssassin · 24/02/2018 12:28

Ah. Good advice. Thanks pickle Smile. Am thinking as have stuck some voltarol gel on will need to wait to take some ibuprofen....also need to go out and buy some! Thought it was ok yesterday but realised once the Tramadol had worn off it very definitely wasn't! Am moving round, albeit a bit gingerly, a bit more today, but it's v painful still....bleurghhh....

Gorgeous day! Made my thoughts turn to summer and this glorious image Grin Combining HCBs and ice-cream? I think I've just found me a little slice of heaven!

@picklemepopcorn how are you doing lovely? Hope the M&S HCBs still helping! ( X )

picklemepopcorn · 25/02/2018 19:34

Hi Sassy, back home now. Starting to look forward again. With the help of chocolate. I decided to cut out the salted caramel and HCB and just have the undiluted chocolate!

picklemepopcorn · 25/02/2018 19:35

How's your back?

TheSassyAssassin · 25/02/2018 19:39

Good to hear pickle Smile On the mend thanks. Was struggling a lot more yesterday so though not moving properly yet, was able to get out for a walk earlier today!

Oh and help yourself! Flowers
