    Do you ride while you work?
    I decided I'll walk to the store and get some back pills. I think i need muscle relaxers for this and then I'll feel better. Advil just isn't cutting it today

    You might want to try Extra Strength Tylenol. I didn’t used to think it was supposed to be for back pain, but it worked really well for me.

    Thanks. I usually just get robaxacet the strongest one. It has a muscle relaxer which usually helps. My physio guy told me last time I had a flare up that I have the start of some degeneration probably and flare ups will happen. Oh well

    Oh my goodness what an exciting game 7 between the Raptors and 76ers. Came down to the last second.

    I learned this weekend that muscle relaxers make me really really sleepy.

    This week I get an MRI for my shoulder to see what's going on in there. I'm hoping for some spontaneous healing which would explain why it hurt today it was healing. Hahaha. Happy new week and hope all the moms had a nice mother's day

    Thanks. It's really just to see if the tear has gotten bigger or smaller. I have pain every day so if the tear is still there and hasn't spontaneously healed the next step will be injections but I really hate needles so not a fan of that

    I haven't been active in here in a while. Still reading the posts though. Hoping some of you guys can offer ideas on how I can manage the rest of my week food wise and not completely overdo it. My schedule:

    Wednesday: ballpark supper (daughter plays softball)
    Thursday: son's 8th grade field trip to New Orleans. All day event 6:30 a.m. until 9 p.m. Starting off with beignet's for breakfast at Cafe du Monde. On the plus side, there will be lots of walking.
    Friday: son's parent luncheon consisting of loads of desserts and catered food
    Saturday: closing tournament for softball. Will be at the ballpark from 8 a.m. until 4 p.m.

    I can manage to fit Wednesday's burger into my calories for the day. It's Thursday that will be the destroyer. We are all things food down here and a day in NOLA will be gluttonous.

    I did a lot of years coaching and watching two sons through baseball from tee ball through high school. I learned to pack some food with me that fits my plan. Jerky, salami, protein bars, string cheese, nuts and fruit are my choices.

    OR-

    NOLA is just one day. Call it a treat day and just enjoy it. The other days are manageable if you bring some food with you.

    Hooray for Wednesday!!! I survived my MRI last night, it was quite relaxing and now we await the results. Everyone is preparing me for the worst but we shall see the MRI itself was really quite relaxing the technician thought I had fallen asleep!

    That’s good to hear. Hope you get a favorable report! Have a great day!
