Much has happened as of late

Aug 07, 2006 09:31

Wanna know somethin' that really sucks? Some how managing to either tear or otherwise injure a ligament in your back. It hurts like fucking hell. I can't really move much of my upper body without wanting to curl up in pain and pretending the world doesn't exist. However, when attempting to do so once I ended up screaming in pain.

Yeeeeeeeeea... This ( Read more... )

You probably hurt yourself popping your back; I know that popping mine can aggravate the damage I did to the base of my back several months ago if I'm not careful.

Tis the first time it has happened to me. @@ I'll need to be careful in the future.

I'm fairly sure I tore a muscle; you probably just sprained something. Depends on how long it lasts, and such...

I think that it was just strained. It doesn't really hurt all that much anymore.

Glad to see you back in LJ-Land *happy, but worried about you* Take care of yourself, honey. Love you.

P.S. - I know longer use my DA Journal, so best bet is to hit up my LJ.)

I remember that from the last journal entry ya made, babe. ;p

You don't need to worry. I have advil and a hot shower. Those and massages from my gf and bf keep me happy.

That's good *happy for you, but envious I can't help* :)

Doing such things arn't what you would call hard, same as breaking a bone. Its basically just moving in the wrong way and at the wrong time, but make sure to go see the doc. It may not just be that, you may have torn a muscle or something simular, either way, painkillers will make things easier xD.

The best way to put it is this, I install satellites as a living as of the moment, the other day I happened to slip off the rood (stupid tin roofs) and fall. That was fun, but anyways, I landed REALLY awquardly, on my arse, twisted my ankle and hurt my shoulder. Yet I just got up and went back to work (Straight back up the ladder and on the roof mind you.) Yet i have heard of people falling off roofs and breaking bones. Its all situational.

You must have just had your back or some such, in a wierd position or your muscles and such where cold, in the end, it will heal xD. As long as you havent broken your back :O

I'm not gonna go see a doctor when there's no real point - it's not like they can do anything that advil can't do. 'sides, $5-$6 looks better than $100-$200...

Ohhh I keep forgetting that, what do you americans have in the way of medical benefits? All australians get Medicare, well most of us anyways. If the surgery accepts Medicare, most of the time we pay nothing or half, if they don't, we can take the doctors bill to a medicare office and they give us around 70% of the money back.

Just curious to how the american system works, if there is one.
