According to my online medical consult, I've got Disc Prolapse. Apparently the layman term for it is a slipped disc but I would imagine mine isn't too severe since I've managed a month without much complaining. Anyway, I was given 3 options to resolve the problem 1) take pain killers, anti inflammatory meds and see a physio 2) See a bone doc and get 2 jabs in the back 3) Surgery. I think at this moment option no.1 seems the most attractive. Ok....ok before anyone gets funny ideas, I would like to emphasize that this back pain has nothing to do with my Hubbs being back. He is not the cause of it, so no funny looks or questions ok? Anyway, thanks msnMD for the free consult.
Well, it's already Thursday and my week off has nearly ended. Unfortunately, I've not been able to sleep in as planned. I guess once you reach a certain age, the luxury of sleeping in goes as your inner clock just wouldn't allow it. Nevertheless, it has been nice waking up early, having breakfast with Hubbs (today I had pork ball noodles soup and chee cheong fun, yesterday was ttdi nasi lemak) and not having to rush anywhere. We have also been letting Elmo out of his room more often so that he can roam around the house. He getting cuter by the day. Now if only we can fully toilet train his pee-ing then he'll be easier to let around the house. Today we watched "I Am Legend" (crap show) and "Why Did I Get Married" (excellent show) - a must for couples. Don't worry guys, it quite a balanced guy/female show. Even Hubbs being sooo guy reckons its a good show.
As you can see the week has been a week of sloth and gluttony. My appetite has return (not that it was really gone in the first place) but I seriously doubt that's a good thing. Note to self, have to start walking Elmo so that I get my exercise as well. Tomorrow is going to be a busy day of running around so I'm going to enjoy the rest of today ending with AKC's yummy popiah!!
