Hi girls!
I'm sorry that I haven't been on for a few days.

On the 15th I was just sitting at the computer checking my e-mails, & then all of a sudden, my back just started hurting SOOOO BAD. On the 1 to 10 scale it was around a 7 & an 8. So my Mom helped me get a heating pad on my back, & I sat in the big armchair all day long w/ my feet up. The next morning I was feeling a bit better. I was able to walk around! Slowly, but surly. Since I couldn't go on the computer at all the day before, I decided to go check my e-mail. I was just sitting there, & the pain hit me again.

It was SOOOOOOOOOOO PAINFUL. On the 1 - 10 scale , it was 15. I couldn't even sit, or stand or walk. It hurt TERRIBLY. I was just SOBBING. It felt like knives were stabbing me repeatedly in the back. {both times it was on my lower left side were it first happened}. My Mom took me to the emergency room at the hospital. I'm glad they weren't busy!

One of the Dr.'s came in & took me to get an x-ray. It turns out that I have a 20% curvature in my spine.
The Dr. thinks that the reason my left side of my hip hurts is that I've gone through a growth spurt since we've moved here. & with that curvature in my spine it throws my whole skeletal system off.

I had to lay on the living room couch for 4 more days. [img]frown.gif[/img] Yesterday, my back was feeling a little bit better! I was able to move around & do the stairs. {SLOWLY & only like twice} Today I am feeling like it never happened! I'm so thankful that I am feeling better now! Please pray that my back doesn't hurt me anymore.

I thank you all for praying for me the first time it hurt me!

Love,
Megan
