Holy hell I'm in agony! Tuesday morning at work, grabbed a coffee, yacked with some coworkers for a bit and then went to my desk. As I was sitting down my lower back gave out. The amount of pain was through the roof, I've snapped my leg twice, broken both arms twice among countless other injuries and this is by far the worst pain. Coworker drove me home and I was having what I can only describe as contractions in the passenger seat. Managed to get myself to bed, this was at 10am.
Spent the day paralyzed with pain and fear of moving creating a spasm. At 10pm I gave in and called 911, fire dept had to come get me out of bed and to the hospital. Xray showed no damage to spine, doc loaded me up with drugs and said I have to get moving asap.
Well now it's Saturday and I can finally sit up with my legs off the bed. I'm going to dedicate today to trying to stand and get to the bathroom. I'm still having spasms but they aren't as intense or as long so I think my muscles are starting to chill out.
Anyway I guess the point of this post is a friendly reminder to stay on top of stretching and general core strength. I've been feeling super fit on the bike lately and I think my core finally gave up to trying to stabilize.
