Please say a quick prayer for my back. I am suppose to have my customer appreciation show in 1 1/2 hours, however while getting ready to take a shower I had a sharp pain shoot up my back. Now I can't stand straight, and I haven't even cooked the food yet! Everyone that can help me doesn't get off work early enough!!! Ugh

So I need a miracle please!!:(
 
Oh Amanda, my prayers are going up right now!

Ann
 
Prayers, prayers, prayers, going your way!
 
Prayed for you...let us know how it goes.
 
I sure hope you get better soon Amanda. Sometimes I get that way and I think I'll never get through it and somehow things get back to normal. I don't know what causes it. Someone told me once it is nerves but I don't buy it!

You might have pulled a muscle.
 
I pray that the pain subsides and you make it through.
 
Prayers to you....

Let us know how it went and how you are feeling!
 
I hope you make it through your party tonight and it is a success despite your pain. Maybe you can get guest participation in helping you tonight!
 
I am praying you get through and that you also get some rest afterward!

Well 1 person showed besides my mom & sis! Part of me is Thank God, the other part says oh that sucks. Maybe it just didn't work out, so maybe I will try it again in a few weeks!! My back is still killing me, when I walk I look like an old granny! I walk worse than my grandma.

I am in so much pain, it's killing me! I slept w/ little discomfort, but today it feels worse than last night!!! Thanks for asking Harriet, I appreciate that!
 
I sure hope you are doing better. I had a similar back issue right before I had to fly across the country. I had never been to a chiropractor, but I was desperate. They did some type of manipulation on my spine and I was able to fly from WA to NC without any real discomfort. (Besides my three kids, hee hee). If it is shooting pain, it could be nerves and that might be helped by a chiropractor. ??? Keep us posted on how you are feeling. A lot of places have discounts or coupons for free initial visits???

My back still hurts but I can almost totally stand up straight. The hard part is I did not take the week off of teaching. So I am trying to have the students come to me, but it just doesn't alwasy work!! Then I come home to a 2 1/2 year old. It may never fully recooperate!!Thanks so much for checking in, I really appreciate that!!
 
I know you probably don't want to hear this Amanda but maybe you ought to call your doctor.

I just don't have the exta $$ right now. It is getting better every day I just push myself too much. So Part of it is my own fault.

Amanda please try to take care of yourself. I know it seems easier send than done but you have got to slow down a bit and help it heal.
