such a liar and woe to me
Posting regularly again? Boy, I missed the boat there.
But school's back in session and I will see if I can manage two blogs again. I guess I won't make any promises.
My husband and I took a trip to Bermuda in August and we had a great time: No mid-flights cluster headaches, only some mild soreness and swollen ankles.
I was poised to hit the gym - Jazzercise, specifically - when I was struck down by the flu. Yes, no kidding, 104 degree temp, red eye, aching influenza. I guess it's flu season somewhere, and I brought it back with me.
What followed: Sinus infection, of course, and this ridiculous backache.
It's been nearly a month, and I can't shake it.
I've tried:
Nothing seems to do it. Funny thing is: I'm pretty sure it originated from laying around so much. Or I picture a team of secret op virus strains crawling into my muscles and throwing one hell of a party.
So, I am tossing it out to you, dear readers. I'm a bad bad blogger, here on this site, but if for merciful heavens you have any advice, please. I'm begging...
And I will be so very grateful for some relief.

I've tried:
- heat
- baths
- ice
- topical creams
- tennis balls
- whining
- sleeping on back
- walks
- tearful pleas for back rubs when my hubby's home
- aerobics
- muscle relaxers
- complaining
- magnesium
- prayer
- fish oil
- epsom salt baths
- OTC NSAIDS
- prescription NSAIDS

I rested quite a bit this weekend, but it didn't seem to help.
:(
Have you used physical therapy much? I'm going to put a call into my rheumatologist about a referral...
