I did get facet joint injections last year that gave me no relief and a negative diagnosis. I'm just going to keep giving it time, but my mind remains open to all possibilities.
I can't wait to see my CAT scan (whenever Dr. Goldstein orders it)
I just had a nice long walk followed by a nice long massage and now I feel relaxed enough to chill out & watch the NFL.
My Northface winter jackets were delivered today so I plan on doing ALOT of walking this winter.
I better get some long underwear too...
