Argh.

I am not happy with my back.

Lying down hurts.

Sitting up hurts.

Standing hurts.

Walking doesn't exactly hurt, but I look like I'm ninety.

Kneeling only doesn't hurt for about ten minutes and then I have to walk around again because my knees start to hurt.


I really don't need this.

OK... I'm going to possibly come across as nosy and officious here... but I wish someone had said this to me at the beginning of last summer, so please don't be totally annoyed...

Did you by any chance try going to a physical therapist? I did something to my back last summer, and it got to the point where I was literally crying when I got out of bed, and whimpering if I had to move my back even the slightest bit. (And I just don't cry and whimper for pain--never have) It turned out I'd bulged a disk in my back, and one appointment at the PT made a night and day difference. I had to keep going for about a month an a half, but it's pretty much completely better now. (I say pretty much, because there is still a teensy bit of underlying stiffness, but no pain.)

Anyway, like I said...I sort of wish someone had said that to me before I spent a month and a half in really bad pain, so if I'm just repeating the obvious, I apologize.

(Also, I think Goldvermillion above has a good point.)

Whatever the issue, I do hope you feel better!

Oh gosh, back pain is so awful. Not that I need to tell you that.

*very very gentle hugs*

Owie!!! I pulled a muscle in my back once, and it was a MISERABLE experience. I hope that your back trouble is exceedingly transitory, and that you feel better soon.

ARGH, indeed. I've had trouble with my back for years since a fall down some stairs. *sends warm hugs, wishes for massage therapists*

Looking for a physical therapist seems to be a good idea. You should seek professional help (if any possible).
