Diva down!!!

Ok, this week has been a bummer. I have a small flaw...2 bulging lumbar discs. I just keep asking myself, is this normal for 34 year old women? What did I do in the past to make this happen? I don't recall any accidents, stupid sorority pranks gone bad, etc. They give me fits from time to time and this week is one of them. I'm on restrictions, working from home, no driving. Needless to say, I have not worn makeup or dressed up much. One benefit is consumption of controlled substances. I can't explain it, but it seems like I work a bit faster, smarter, and harder. I could never have an addition, for those of you that know me, I'm too much of a control freak. Maybe it's a bi-product of pain. Who knows, but my creative juices have been flowing. If you have ever experienced back pain, I'm sure you can relate. Pain sucks. Drugs don't (temporarily). I can't take Nancy Reagan's advice 100% of the time, but I am legally drug free.

I am thankful for my Psiatrist (not Psychiatrist although we all may need one of these from time to time!). He is a medical doctor who specializes in treating pain. Dr. Dan McHugh over at Premiere Orthopedics. He is very conservative and easy on the eyes. Leah can vouch. John used to call on him when he worked for Merck. Anyhoo, if you need a good Psiatrist, Dr. Dan is your man.
