I have been bad, and I apologize. I just finished my 4th week back to work and have been struggling some. I have had very little time to be on this computer, let alone check in here. I am slowly making my way back to a full days work, but I am still restricting my number of procedures, as my back is still very tired and sore after a few hours at the surgery table.
Got home this afternoon and also had to try and muster the energy to mow the lawn. Never got to it last weekend, and it showed. So much to do, and so little time and/or energy to do it in.... Frame of mind sucks, and I know it would be this way. Even doctors can suffer from post-surgery depression. Right now it seems I've just traded one type and degree of pain for another, equally debilitating. I'm tired...... mentally and physically. But I have no choice... I must keep going somehow, someway.
Sorry I'm in a funk right now..............

i understand being in a funk. I have been stuck in a depression for the last couple of months. It is nothing meds would help, just situational. i am so glad you are back at work and i bet the critters are too. I know your back has to hurt after a day at work. Even standing at the OR table is stressful on the back. Take it slow so you don't injure yourself. Be extra careful mowing thre lawn. that is a hard job and the vibration from the mower is dangerous to a back surgery.
take care and hope to hear from you soon. Enjoy your weekend.

I'm proud of you for being brave enough to choose the pain of surgery over the pain of living with herniated discs forever. It's ok to get down sometimes but I'm sending you tons of positive energy now to help you get back up!!!
