Last July, I got a steroid shot in my back to reduce some pressure on my spinal cord (L4 and L5 vertebrae for people that care). Two things happened, my career as a professional baseball player was over due to the steroid shot (just kidding) and my back and leg pain went away. I knew it was a temporary solution and I can have up to 4 shots in 12 months.
Fast forward 7 months and my back pain and leg pain/numbness is back. So, I go in Monday for my second shot in the back. Hopefully, this one is as successful as the last one. People talk about these shots being a big deal but last time, it was painless and gave immediate relief. So lots hope for that outcome again this time.
And thank God Roland is OK after his feast at the Chocolate Buffet.
Let me know if you need a ride again Monday. I have the day off (President's Day) so we're not doing anything!
ReplyDeleteI got in at 1:30PM and Thresa will be able to pick me up at about 3:30PM. But thanks for the offer.
