Ow.
- Nov. 18th, 2008 at 8:08 AM
Back is out. I'm working from home today while I hobble around with a cane - driving seems to make it worse. I'd hoped it would be improved this morning. Not so much. At 9, I am going to call and see if I can get in to see an RMT today. I am trying to avoid taking anything with advil in it because my stomach is pretty upset to begin with.

Good luck with the RMT.
Have you called the RMT yet?
I'm glad you're phoning the RMT.
*hugs*
*very gentle hug*
Back stuff officially sucks :/
Your milleage may vary, but my doc told me to take advil (or any of its cousins) with food to coat your stomach and that it helps with the side effects there. Might be worth a try, in the least. My experience here (I have back issues too) is that a 1/3 cup yogurt, some toast or the like will generally help divert the stomach issues with ibuprofen-type medicines.
Good luck and hope you feel better soon!
*delicate hugs*
A trip to the RMT has me walking unassisted again, but I'm probably overdue for a trip to physio to revisit injury avoidance stuff again.
Hope you're feeling better soon!
