Do Not Do This At Home...

[irishredlass]

I can assure you all that flipping arse over head over the back of a couch is not a good move and should not be tried at home.

Yup, you all read correctly I was moving my couch last night and some how managed to do a somersault over the back of it.

Results: Sprained neck, back completely out of alignment and a chiropractor who I am sure is still scratching his head over this one. Oh, I forgot to mention the migraine I woke up with this morning.

I made it through 3 hours of work before I admitted defeat and called my chiropractor. Gem that he is he worked me in this afternoon and I have to go back and see him again in the morning before he will let me go back to work.

And how was your day?

*hugs gently*

I can't imagine doing that... mind you, at the moment I can't imagine moving/lifting a sofa with my arm, lol.

Hope its sorted and you feel better soon. Neck/back injuries are awful.

Accepts gentle hug.

I agree neck and back pain is awful the sad part is that I have pretty much become accustomed to some level of discomfort. After being temporarily paralyzed as a child and being in 3 car accidents (none my fault) my back is pretty messed up to begin with... things like this only make it worse and force me to seek treatment.;)

Oh Nooooooooooooo! Listen here, girlfriend, you'd better take it easy for a week or so, or we'll have to come rescue you from yourself.

Seriously, I hope your chiropractor is able to get everything sorted very quickly.

*Gently hug you*

Thank you for gentle hugs. I will be off to see Dr. Wulf in a short while and then back to work. You can't keep a determined Irish Woman down!

You couldn't reconstruct that one if you tried.

Though I'm glad you've got someone who can reconstruct you.

*gentle hugs*

Yeah, I know what you mean by not reconstructing that one! I look at the couch and the height of the back and I look at the fact that I am only 5'6" and wonder how in the H*** did I do that?

Dr Wulf is a godsend! And it helps that he is named aptly and not bad on the eyes *grins*

Accepts gentle hugs and hugs back.
