Tomorrow's Appointment....

[phylly]

Hi Mary,
Likely the Dr. will examine you and then order some tests like X-rays and MRI's before they can really diagnose your problem. He may want you to try some physical therapy and an anti-inflammatory medication to see if your back calms down without surgery. Even though you are miserable some back problems heal themselves without surgery. I hope that is the case with you.

Once you know exactly what the problem is you can probably ask tons of questions. I am sure others will chime in here. I am so sorry for your problems, you are certainly carrying a big load on your shoulders. I hope by now you have found some help in caring for your daughter. Good luck with your appointment tomorrow.
Phylly
