I have a pesky problem that isn't clearing up, and I'm in pig-headed mode right now. I injured my back several years ago, and due to what spine specialists and other professionals have said, I have just given in to the fact that I may live with this pain, lack of function, and injury forever.
About two weeks ago, I spent a few days doing laundry, cleaning, and just being extremely active. I wasn't listening to my body (I do this quite often) and I should've stopped to rest. But I didn't. My foot started hurting. My back and leg and sciatica started acting up really bad - I have been having spasms, a very hard time walking or functioning, etc.
When I sit down, my foot cramps and hurts like hell. When I walk or put my shoes on, it is the same way. I wake up in the morning and face my day, but I do it with tears in my eyes as of late. I keep hearing other folks say, "go to the hospital" because I have no primary care physician (there is a shortage where I live). I won't go though. I think I'm not going to get treated. I feel as though they are going to either tell me to lose weight or say that the treatment I am getting is par for the course and there is nothing they can do for me that isn't already being done.
So what do I do? Do I continue to suffer, rest, and hope this goes away? I have a life to live and a child to take care of - and I can't be out of commission. I can't NOT get out of bed in the morning even if that means I cry because of the pain and loss of function. I am just frustrated and getting tired of having to live this way.
HELP!
