Back trouble...

The back problem continues although the drugs do help. I've been trying not to take too many so i've just taken one of each evry day instead of the "one, three times a day" the doctor prescribed. I have had one bad pain attack in my left knee and had to take an extra Tramadol which sorted that out.

I was feeling OK'ish yesterday evening although there was a little bit of pain in my left leg. I'd taken the tablets at about 7:30pm just before dinner. Early this morning, about 7, I started to feel a b it uncomfortable so by 7:45 I decided to get up and make a cup of tea and take the full set of drugs, 3 in all.

I went back to bed with cups of tea for me and Wendy. I remember drinking my tea but then don't remember anything until I woke up at about 1pm.

I'm feeling pretty well OK at the moment apart from the continued numbness in my left big toe and feeling lightheaded.

I have a doctors appointment at 9:10am tomorrow (Monday) so I'm hoping I'll get referred to a specialist to get the spine thing sorted once and for all.

If I can get hold of any X-Rax pics I'll post them here.
