Nerves and Chicken

There are times when you think you are doing good for things that happen to you but later on you find out that you are actually making a mess of things.... and that is the case for my sciatica nerve....

Two weeks ago I sneezed and did something to my sciatica nerve... and tonight when I got up around midnight quite wide awoke because I have slept most of the afternoon and evening I thought it was time for me to look up what this was all about since I didn't get a lot of information from my doctor... so what did I learn...well this can go on for a few days (which is well passed that) or several months...(which I really don't want at all).... on this site that I went to it showed me a simple exercise to do to help with this problem... very easy and simple as I said before... cross your leg over your other leg and bend from the waist as far as you can... the lower you go the more pull...hmmmm now that I can do since I love crossing my legs ...besides that the anti-inflammatory that the doctor gave me and of course the pain killers will work ... but the one thing that I didn't know was the less I do the more this sucker is going to act up....so going to bed for the day is not something I should be doing because I can tell you it is painful as heck when I try to get out of bed... it seems that the less I move usually make the pain worse... because the regular movement is necessary to get it back to where it was before the sneeze...so in the next days I will be exercising and stretching a little more then normal so it will not take months to get over this...

Though we are not really dieting we try to stay away from greasy foods namely deep fried ... but for the last few days Carl has been wanting some deep fry chicken that we sometimes go get upshore...tonight since he was making dinner while I was in bed he thought a trip up to get his chicken would be a good idea ....which I thought it was until about 30 minutes after eating it ...I thought I was going to die for a while ... guess someone is going to finish up the chicken on his own because I am not going near it again....he is on his own for the next craving...

So now I am going to try and get my butt back to bed because it is way too early to be up for the day... have a great one all... Joanne
