Taking it one day at a time. Woke up yesterday with some gnarly sciatic pain then hurt myself while putting away groceries. So basically it hurts to do anything even cough or sneeze. I been taking pain pills accordingly and having time on my heatpad and time moving around slowly a bit. The same old rodeo for me. Been pushing through some kind of pain for years. It is what it is. My sister is aware. She also has problems with sciatic nerve pain. She takes muscle relaxers or has a steroid shot for hers. Not much Dr's can do for it. I'm just trying to get the inflammation down the best I can. I am getting naps in and that helps alot. Sciatica is no Joke and can be very painful.

I see a lot of people (rightfully) complaining about their sciatica, and I know many of these people might not be able to see physical therapists or doctors for various reasons, so it’s time to learn about the sciatic nerve glide! This will help with numbness, and also some pain, and it’s super easy. It’s technically a stretch.
Instructions
Sit with the affected leg stretched out a bit with your heel on the floor, foot is angled upwards.
This sounds weird for a back stretch, but lean over.
With your heel still on the floor, angle your foot up and down like pushing on a pedal.
Sometimes you will feel a stretch in your muscles, but this is stretching and moving your nerve. This has helped me bring feeling back into my leg.
As with any stretch, don’t do it too quickly, or for too long, and listen to your body.

My partners finally convinced me to buy a cane for my bad pain days. (I have sciatic nerve damage.)
Send suggestions for what kind to get and how I should decorate it.
Also is bdsm with a disability aid on poor taste? It was the first thing I thought about once I decided to go ahead and do it.

vent!!!!
Ever since I was little I both prided myself in and craved independence. I could be home alone by 6. I could make meals on the stove by 8. I could cut my own orange (at the risk of cutting myself the first time). I could bandage my own wounds with no fuss.
Now, this may be some sort of trauma response, but I love my independence.
However, I am now beginning to be physically dependent before I'm even financially independent.
Sometimes I have to call and ask for help standing up.
I've gotten stuck several times on the stairs where I just had to wait a few minutes until I could move without unbearable pain again.
I take so many medications and some of them impact my ability to balance and move my limbs.
Tasks like my laundry and putting on my shoes are 10 times more difficult.
I haven't cut my hair in at least a month because I'm so afraid it'll become another thing taken out of my hands. I've only been allowed to do it for a year. It'll be absolutely despairing if it gets taken so soon.
I'll go as long as I can take without water, food, or the bathroom because I know getting up with just hurt so much.
I've already had to change the shoes I wear and the bag I use. How long until I have to use some sort of contraction to get my socks on? How long until i have to ask anytime my shoes become untied?
What if I'm bedridden by 25 with my dreams of a PhD completely down the drain?
They are yet to figure out what is wrong with me and I have so many things wrong with me.
I have to see a sleep specialist and a rheumatologist and a neurologist and have an mri done and go to physical therapy and take this medication and that medication and oh let's try this medication to see if it works
It literally makes zero since for my nerves to be acting like this. I'm fucking 19, there's nothing wrong with my spine, I haven't had any sort of injury recently, and I haven't shown any signs of a degenerative disease.
I've done so much research and I've found nothing.
So I just have to sit with this new reality of being in constant pain and just hope it doesn't get worse.
Fucking hell.

That "what was the worst pain you've felt" poll is kinda validating me cause I've seen a few people say ear pain on there. I always feel like I sound like a baby when I say I worse pain has been an ear infection lol
