Best moment this week: Today! It's Wednesday.
& I get to go see Dr. Gunney.
(Last week I had to see him twice, last Wednesday, and then again last Friday.
I woke up Friday morning, and I could not sit, lay, stand, nothing...
without my lower back having the worst pain I have ever experienced in my life.
I thought I was in labor.
(mind you I don't know what labor pains feel like,
I was induced, and had an epidural with Bonnie Kayte)
So little did I know... my tailbone was all the way off to the left side.
No wonder it hurt to sit.
Immediate relief as soon as he adjusted me.)
