So I thought I knew what pain was. I thought I'd experienced pain in life. Apparently, life felt I still had things to learn about pain. Now, just so we're clear, I'm talking about physical pain in this case. Oh, my gosh. That pain that only old people are supposed to get? That pain they like to call sciatica? Yeah, I got that. DOES THIS MEAN I'M OLD NOW?! Holy POOP it's the worst thing I've ever felt in my life. It just goes on and on. It makes sleep impossible. I've never gone four days with no more than an hour's sleep at a time before. Now I have. I can't say it's something to enjoy. This pain does not allow napping either. So I'd be up all day AND night, and only a few times was I able to manage dozing off for 30-60 minutes. Then the cycle would begin again. But finally last night I was able to get some more sleep. I'm still in pain, but it's more manageable if that's the right word. I probably won't be at the computer much longer as the pain doesn't particularly care for this sitting position. The other aspect of this horrid experience is the boredom. *sigh*
