I can’t deal with my back tantrums any way but to spend my days with ice packs. When it starts I can feed the cats and that’s it. My back hurts every day...and I can get stuff done if I stop often...but when point agony fires up it stops me cold.
So far I’ve been able to deal with my back tantrums with ice and heat but no pain meds other than aspirin. A high tolerance for pain helps. Just have to be careful how I do stuff and can manage. A little here, a little there. I’m grateful every day to be able to pull it off. Things could be worse.
